RE: win 98 bugs...

[bmegenity@xxxxxxxxxx]

Don:

I've been having a similar problem on an older Gateway2000 Solo; Pentium   
133. My 1.44 is a plug-in to the parallel port and all seems to work well   
under Win95, but when I installed Win98, I began having all kinds of   
problems with it. I have found that I can do everything if I restart the   
system into MS-DOS. I'm not suggesting this as a workaround, just   
pointing out what has to be done to get the silly things operating at   
all.

OK, on the slight chance that you're running a 385 thinkpad and are
thinking of upgrading to win 98...DON'T.  I just did and it won't
recognize the A: drive for formating....it WILL read and write to a
formatted diskette, but will not format it...the drive seems to timeout
when doing the format operation...

The only reason I went to 98 with this thinkless pad was because I was
having soooo many problems with 95 locking up on the box....and I've got
the latest 95 drivers from the webber....

...strike one up for Virus-98....
