116619 2003-01-26 01:49:00 i got a computer with win98se
and a cd of win2000 and win98se..
and i wanna reformat win98se
but should i just put win98se back on the computer..or upgrade to win2000?....
its basically a gaming computer...and all games run on that computer and most games want win98 installed...but i'm using them on my computer..and its winxp......and its at the moment sitting unused and has a corrupted registry....as confirmed by a computertech...and he offered to reformat for a cost but i know how to do it..and with pressf1...should be a breeze...
and the other worry is..drivers? will they still work on win2000 if i upgrade to that from win98???

If more answers are needed just ask away...am sitting here for the next hour or so and fiddling with old computer and reading pressf1 stuff :D

Sooo hope u guys can help :D

116620 2003-01-26 01:55:00 If the games work in or want W98, haven't you answered your own question? You'll have more disk space and memory space for the games to use, too. ;-) Graham L (2)

116622 2003-01-26 04:59:00 If your W98 games worked on XP they should be OK on W2k. I'm not sure that they did, but with respect CS, your post is a little disjointed.

Failing that, I'd stick to 98 if that's what the games are designed for and that's what the machine will be used for. Why buy an argument?
