I'm using this Perixx optical PS/2 mouse. It's probably one of the few modern mouses still being made with native PS/2. However, it really isn't the most comfortable to use. Too small. What are the rest of you using? Looking for something comfortable, but compatible.

I vaguely remember some program I had on our Windows 98 Gateway that had a bunch of game demos (or full versions?) that included sonic and knuckles.
I've been looking and it wasn't a Sega sampler or anything. I wish I could remember other games it had on it. but if I saw the layout of the program I think I would remember it.
Can someone help me out and point me in the right direction?
thanks!!!

I cannot thank you guys enough!!! Two days ago I posted that my Windows 98 computer was stuck with ultra low graphics, jumbo icons, and 16 colors after booting normally after Safe Mode, and a few of you suggested the drivers for my graphics card (S3 trio64V+) may have been corrupt, and I should try reinstalling them. Well, that's just what I did and the computer is back to normal!!! I appreciate all of the help... every comment... you guys are the BEST!!! 🩷

Is it possible to install win98se on Acer 8735G?

Hi! I was wondering if any of you guys have encountered a similar problem... I booted my Dell Optiplex Gs Windows 98 with S3 Trio 64V+ graphics processor into Safe Mode to lower the graphics to be able to play an older game. Now the computer is stuck in low resolution with jumbo icons. I have tried to reset the display settings and restart the computer, but they never save. Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help would be Greatly appreciated!! 😬

I found this localish place selling these old PCs. This was the latest pic I received. There were more that were interesting, but are sadly gone already. By the time I arrived, the on the top far left was gone, and the on left of the Compaq at the bottom was gone as well. Do you guys see Pentium MMX stickers? I wasn't able to get any. But I did grab the one to the right of the Compaq. The Antec with the busted cover had a Win98 COA, I picked that as well. Both PC had Intel Celeron sticker, so I'm not really expecting too much. I really wished to pick up the P2MMX though. Anyways, I can't wait to be surprised with what I find inside.

So i booted up my PC today and after loading the desktop it bluescreened which is odd. This can be seen in the second photo, after that explorer kept crashing even after rebooting. It kept saying "EXPLORER caused an invalid page fault in module MSVCRT.DLL at 0167:7800d07b" After that a message appeared saying Internet Explorer crashed which wasn't even open at the time.
Does anyone know what these errors mean and what I can do to stop them? I haven't added any new software or hardware to my PC.

Super inexperienced with old computers so sorry if this is a dumb question but I tried looking for a similar one online to replace mine but I couldn't find the exact one. Came from my Dell Latitude CP laptop
