Update for "Need free fixes, patches & updates that are compatible for Windows 98 SE"

[Mah-jonng]

Hi to everyone who has replied to the above mentioned thread and I apologise for not replying to you all.

Also, this is an update: have successfully installed all the free, legitimate and legal fixes, patches and updates, which includes free drivers, but not any free program, for Windows 98 SE after visiting the following websites: mdgx.com, hpcfactor.com and msfn.org. Had to perform the task twice after having a 'compatibility' problem the first time. It includes an update from DirectX6 to DirectX 9c.

But, I do realise that there might be more free, legal & legitimate drivers, fixes, patches and updates for Windows 98 SE. So I would welcome any links or suggestions!

Also, have not 'finished' the or this 'project' just yet as I am now looking for FREE old 'graphics chip tuning' program for a or the Intel 82810E Graphics And Memory Controller (part of the Intel 810E chipset inbuilt on an Intel Whitney SR Board motherboard) compatible or suitable for Windows 98 SE (forgot to mention in first thread that it's Service Pack 1) similar like or to Riva Tuner to download for FREE from a reputable website, maybe one that provides old programs legitimately! Would welcome any links or suggestions. But please note: although I have not found anything yet after using 3 search engines OldApps do not provide such a program and I have not done a search yet on the Major Geeks website!

I am also looking for a FREE unlock and delete file program similar to IOBit Unlocker, but not Unlocker or an earlier version of that program, compatible or suitable for Windows 98 SE SP1 installed on the small tower computer to use myself for now as I have some files and folders to delete - am thinking of including it on a created programs disc to give it to the person that I will be 'giving' the computer to. Again would welcome any links or suggestions. But again please note: although I have not found anything yet after using 3 search engines I do not think OldApps provide such a program and I have not done a search yet on the Major Geeks website!

That's it for now - cannot think of anything else to add to my update. But, of course, I might return in the future to 'give' you all a further update. Also if, anyone who has replied to my thread can think of anything, as in links or suggestions, then please provide them.

Thanks and all the best to you all for the future.

Hi denis280,

Thank you for the link for the Unofficial Windows 98 SE Service Pack. But I must apologise because I forgot to include "Unofficial Windows 98 SE Service Pack 3" in my update to my original message.

Or in other words: I have already installed Unofficial Windows 98 SE Service Pack 3 onto the Windows 98 SE computer because, after "looking inside the .exe to 'examine' it", by using 7-Zip, I found out it was the best one through the 'process of elimination'!

But, I still realise that I that there might be more free, legal & legitimate drivers, fixes, patches and updates for Windows 98 SE. So I would, again, welcome any links or suggestions!

Thank you again from
