help with windows update. (i can't find it on this install of win98se)

[beatniks3]

thanks for reading. i installed win98se on a new computer that i am using and can't seem to find an option for using windows update. i should probably mention that i am also using win98lite. on my old computer, the option was located above 'programs' on the start window, where the winzip and office icons sit. any ideas?

Are you on Team AnandTech?

'Your organization has decided to provide software updates internally rather than through Windows Update. To download updates for your Windows computer, please see your network administrator.'

that is what the windows update site says when i open that page. i looked under tools in IE but it is not an option. maybe the probelm is win98lite?

Yes you are correct. The problem IS 98Lite.
