Is there anybody still monitoring this group that might give me some help? I am still using Windows 98 (SE) in an old computer because it has some capability I...
That is a bit of a pickle, Frank. What I would do is get another harddrive and install it in the master position by setting the jumper. And change the setting...
Thanks, John, I'll give that a try. What seems strange to me is why I can access the drive even though the BIOS doesn't see it. I suspect I already have that...

If the BIOS doesn't see the drive -- i.e. in the boot up sequence -- you should not be able to access the drive. Access the drive how? I thought you couldn't...
Well, John, as Mark Twain observed, "The problem isn't what we don't know; it's what we do know that just ain't so". The bottom line is that from my Windows 98...

Thank you, Mike. Opera will work in my WinME. I used to have opera but gave if up for Firefox. As long as Opera is not upgrading and putting their browser...
I have never heard of Seamonkey. How do you like it? Where do you get it? I downloaded Netscape just in case my Firefox became corrupted suddenly due to lack...
Without upgrades, I expect that the older version of firefox will be a target and will become corrupt and unusuable. It is just a matter of time before it no...
Dear Peter ~ As long as you don't upgrade your operating system, why be in a panic? I've been using Netscape for years, even though it is no longer supported....
Dear C-Post: Thank you so much for your advice. I was worried about Firefox and Netscape becoming corrupted and unusable as Internet Explorer did. But if you...
I was rooting around through my "inventory" the other day and came across a stand-alone Gateway 2000 Solo 1.4 mb floppy drive with a parallel port connector. I...
I found this in a rarely used file and thought that it might help someone else using an Win98 or WinME computer. Not sure if any of this is still anywhere on...

Hello IC Thanks for the response. I need to make floppy copies of files in my 98SE computer to transfer them to another computer. The 98 says that the...
