They didn't try hard enough... they wanted to be 'trendy', up-to-date,
and able to look into your computer. They disregarded all concern
for reliable audio in this pursuit - but that's just my humble opinion.

There wasn't a problem. Networking was the problem, and they
apparently didn't try very hard to link up with 98.

I'm sorry you're having to go through this. I have a client that just went
to XP and I'm having to learn more of it than I care to.

Shut down services you don't need.... (optimize)

They probably made you use an 'upgrade' disc... so now it's virtually
impossible to remove it. Plus, now that it's installed, you've missed
a lot of opportunities for set-up preferences, optimizing, dual booting,
etc.. Best of luck, I'm sure you will make it work.

I'm posting now on a box that's exactly this spec. It's basically a surf
toy, but there are a few audio programs on there and software for
supporting web sites, pretty much nothing more... just the 98SE OS.
If you whittle things down to just what you need, it should be fine...
although I don't think there's any reason it won't take a gig of RAM.
