| I think 98 is too much trouble. Like was said its a different file system and can't communicate with the other systems. Seems like a waste just to play some games to me. I have 98 and win2k on my other system and every game i have runs fine on win2k, even from 1998, so not sure how old the games ur talking about are. |

| u can always used vmware/virtual pc to install other OS on your current one as long as u have space/mem/speed. and no need to create new partition |

hrmm true I could use vmare.. or virtual pc.. but 98 needs my system to be fat32 and I have ntfs.
Oh ya.. I used win2k before but I'm talking about the games like sam n max, space quest series, full throttle.. the ones that use the dos environment.
But then again I checked the specs on spacquest 6 dos version and it said that it won't work on Me or xp.. so am not sure about 2k. |
