i was just wondering if there where any kinda patches for being able to play like windows 98 games on windows ME
my problem i have is that i used to have windows 98 and played a game on there (star trek armada) except when that pc broke :( i got a new one made the only problem i had was that my new computer now has windows ME and the game doesnt work cause its only for windows 98/95
if anyone could help i would be a happy guy as i use to love that game :D
thanks
Danny :)

RE: Gaming Trouble
it would only take extra HDD space, basically just insert the windows 98 cd, and then create a new install, put it in a different folder to the win me stuff, and then install.

Make sure ur not using a NTFS drive, and then when u start the pc, ull get an option of using me or 98.

someone confirm this for me, as it worked for me when i was installing windows 2k

i dont think it works because me and 98 are both windows 9x versions.
