That is the exact link I was just about to post, that I just found. http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/downloads/default.asp And, guess what?? When I click the link for "Download the Service Pack from Windows Update" the JERKS send me right back to the same dam' page that I mentioned in another post.....!!!
"Thank You for your interest in Windows Update..... The Windows Update Web site no longer offers updates for your computer. To obtain updates for your computer, please visit one of the following Web sites:......." Incredible, isn't it. And no, win2k is not an option. I hated it. Nor is XP an option, too buggy, too new. ME and SE too buggy. Also no driver support or software support for some of my hardware and software I use. Thanks for trying, -Clint God Bless Us All Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Kaulback" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Clint, remember that M$ will be dropping support for 98 later this year so it would be beneficial to download the updates whole in the event that the links for them are removed completely from the site. If you do here http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/downloads/default.asp you can do this as well you can order the Windows 98 Customer Service Pack which basically updates 98 to the SE level. As well there is the win98 corporate page here http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/downloads/corporate.asp Once I started doing on-site work I began to download all updates for 95/98/98SE/NT4 and burn them to disc. It's just so convenient.
