thanks very much for you idea ,yeah ,intel official website told me that they have released a driver for this state. and intel support engineer told me that BIOS has disabled this option a VBIOS or INF level. I will get helps from my BIOS engineer, but what a pity ,we hadn't good processes.I'd better contacting intel again. I wish they can give me more helps. Wow,I look forward to this issue can fix ASAP.it bother me so long.

hi
I'm trying to install win 98 on a new PC, the boot menu loads from the CD inside the DVD Drive but when I choose to install 98 with CD-rom support, it couldn't recognize the drive,is it the problem with DVD? what should I do? (except downloading drivers  )
... and I can't open the Box, it's in warranty

It might have something to do with the fact that the OS is 10 years out of date..?

Uhh, without drivers, you can't use the DVD. So guess what....

Why? Windows 98 is soooooo old and out of date.

one of our clients uses an old ms-dos program, he wanted to replace his Win XP with Win 98
you can consider my problem as installing win 98 on a machine without cd-drive
I'm trying to find something about installing from network
and for the last way I will use my ubunto live cd to copy installation files on hard disk

I would highly recommend installing Windows XP and using Microsoft Virtual PC[^] for the old MS-DOS applications. It is completely free and very easy to setup.
Windows 98 is no longer supported and will no longer recieve security updates. It reached the end of life back in 2006[^] and is now a retired product. Anyone using Windows 98 will be subject to unpatched vulnerabilities, some of which may occur simply by surfing the internet.
You should inform your boss of this and then show him how easy it is to use Virtual PC 2007[^]
Best Wishes,

Is the client unable to use the msdos program under XP? Shouldn't be any problem doing so.

Thx for replying.
I don't know which program he uses but I asked him the same question and he said nope, it only can work in MS-Dos or at least 98,it seems that it's a very old program !

If you have a floppydrive you can always install from that.
If you check the files on the cd you'll notice that they are divided into a load of similar sized cabfiles (about 1.68 MB).
They'll all fit on floppies if you have the right formatting program, winimage or dcf should do fine.
And then you have to spend some hours on swapping floppies, just like in the good old days.

I am adding on to the oct30 posting I made regarding having changed the product key number and also bypassed the activation.A few days later I noticed that the "numlock" and the "reset configuration data" settings were set at disable in the BIOS and so I reset them to enable using the keyboard and rebooting and doing another reinstall with formatting and using the new product key.
The slow bootup of about 75 seconds has returned to the normal faster bootup in the 30 to 35 second range.
The numlock has retained its reset value "enable" but the "reset configuration data" switched back to "disable";Athough ,the computer is still bypassing the activation when I ran the activation wizard ;as the wizard says that the computer is already activated.The computer is still operating normally when I am using it.
I phoned DELL and the technician said that the "enable"setting for the "reset configuration data" is usally just a one time setting.Maybe that is so that any owner or manufacturer would know whether the original product key and activation configuration had been altered;I am just speculating.
The Dell tech told me I could flash the bios with the latest bios version {A02},the computer is a Dimension 2350 that has the original {A01}bios version.So,I downloaded it from the Dell site and the tech ran me through the setup on the telephone.
In retrospect;I would have preferred to keep the original bios A01 version .For example ;when I deleted the Internet Explorer browser using the regedit: HKLM > Software > Microft > Internet explorer; I find out that I am locked out of the "administrative tools" that are in the control panel.I get a dialogue message saying that the "microsoft
management console"requires that the Internet Explorer" be installed on the computer before I can access any of the administrative tools.
The A01 bios version does not have anything installed that is called the "microsoft management console".
I use the Firefox browser and I never had any problems accessing any of the system folders after I deleted the Internet Explorer in the regedit ;when the A01 bios version was installed in the computer.
I noticed that the "reset configuration data" parameter in the advance tab of the bios is still set at "disable" even after having flashed the bios with the latest A02 bios version.
A few days ago ; I was experimenting with the "permissions" option when you right click on any of the regedit keys and sub keys.
One easy to do tweak that has a definate effect on the xp activation wizard is to right click on the " WPA Events " key and then click on the "advance" option that is in the dialogue box that appears on the screen.Then in the next dialogue box that appears;there are two permission statements near the bottom of the dialogue box and the entry that says "inherit from parent the permission that applies to child objects "...etc ;has its selection box checked with a check mark.
The second entry that is below it says,"replace permission entries on all child objects with entries that apply here"...etc and its box is unchecked.
If you reverse the check mark and press enter, another dialogue box appears on the screen that warns you that making these changes will effect the permission status of the key etc.Ignore the "copy" selection and choose the "remove" option that is in the dialogue box and press enter.
You will then notice that the first dialogue box will then appear but all the data that was in the box has been wiped out.Then,just close the dialogue box and reboot the computer so the new settings get processed.
Then,run the activating wizard and you will see that the activating wizard DOES NOT EVEN APPEAR on the screen and there are no other notices that appear anywhere on the desktop screen saying anything about activation.
You can also restore all the data that was in the WPA Events key dialogue boxes if you want to; by just reversing the check mark in the two boxes to their original choices that were already selected when you first opened the key.

I'm trying to run a program under windows xp developed in ms Visual C++ V6. I want to use 10 to 30 MBytes to store doubles but find with just about 10 Mbytes it takes 3 days to run! With 2 MBytes it runs in half an hour. Is there something in C++ limiting performance? Or is XP a limiting factor? Is there anything I can do about it? Any help appreciated. George - confused

Only your code...

Nope.

Re-examine your code and figure out where the bottleneck is. You have to profile your code to see what's going on and why it's taking so long to run.
Since you don't say anything about how you're doing these calculations or storing the numbers, it's just about impossible to say what's going wrong.

Dave, Many thanks for your speedy response. I'm pursuing the profiling suggestion which I very much appreciate. Regards, David George

Hi, I have a problem when try to test routing and remote access feature in Windows 2003. I have read the document about establishing the connection between two computer running windows 2003 with a separate phone line. All of equipment are already in places with a configuration follow by the document.
But when I try to connect from the first computer to the second computer, it display a dialog box to connect and count around 5 second its display a message box informed that the interface is disconnected. And after I click Ok button the second dialog box appear inform: There is no routing enabled ports for used by this demand dial interface.
Could anyone tell me what is the problem? And how could I solve the problem? Thank in advance.
