Hi there
I've had alot of problems with Win98SE as well for example: PC locking up programs freezing up, some things i have noticed are when win98se locks up if i leave it for about 5 mins it will reboot the PC also if i try to multi-task between different programs the computer will start to slow down greatly until it crashes a bit stupid whenever i have a PIII 450, 256MB ram, 25GB HDrive 32MB videocard, if this is not enough for win98se then maybe a cray super computer, come on you guys at MS it's time to take us into the future not back to the stone age.
I will a wait the next release with some due care.

Just got done with a training exercise in a class of newbees. We took a perfectly good Win98FE machine, did a del tree and installed Win98SE and had no problems at all. It even detected the nic and set it up properly along with the ATI graphics card's drivers. I'm Impressed.

hiya gents, would like to comment on a few points here,i work for a large computer co, in london and we are actively installing win98 and win98se on all the systems we supply, with no abnormal issues , i.e. nothing out of the ordinary for microsoft, the o/s is as stable as it should be. No, I am not a microsoft groupie, my personal system runs redhat6.0, but lets give credit where credit is due. P.S. we are using oem version on win98se and to date still havent got ics to function correctly, both machine can see each other fine, the host can dial out and handshake correctly BEFORE ICS installation, but after ics installation the host can no longer complete the login process. removing ics does NOT cure the problem, all network protocols, clients and adapters must be removed and reinstalled after a reboot to get the host operational again... go figure!
p.s. windrivers is probably one of the better sites around, thanks guys!

I have had no problems with Win98 SE. I have it installed on a PII 450 with 256MB of SDRAM. I have found it to actually be more stable.
