hi guys ...
i'm in a problem & i need ur help in it
i need 2 download win98 on a HP pc but there's a problem in the motherboard where it wont be configured
i've mailed HP & they told me that this machine supports hyper-threading while win98 doesnt so i wont be able to install win98 as it's a problem in the motherboard so nothing can be done
but the customer that wants this service is demanding win98 on this specific machine & wont let go of his demand
so is there anything that can be done? or is it impossible 2 be installed?
i mean is there a way that i can twist things around 2 make it installed???is there a certain command or something??
plz reply .. i need help

Wince Win98's support was ended way before Hyperthreading, no there is no command to force this to work.
You can TRY to get into the machines BIOS Setup and see if there is an option to disable Hyperthreading. If it doesn't work after that, you really have no choice but to install XP on the machine, then install Virtual PC (now free from Microsoft and VMWare), then install Win98 under that.

Good Luck! HP's not known for keeping legacy drivers around for their PC's.

hi,
Install VMWare Server - its free !
http://www.vmware.com/products/server/get.html
Begin enjoying the benefits of server virtualization with the free VMware Server. VMware Server installs on any existing server hardware and partitions a physical server into multiple virtual machines by abstracting processor, memory, storage and networking resources, giving you greater hardware utilization and flexibility. Streamline software development and testing and simplify server provisioning as you utilize the ability to "build once, deploy many times."

No matter how many times I try it... The drive is the only device on the PIDE channel and is jumpered properly.
No odd drivers are needed since the drive is a simple ATA100 80Gb WD drive. Just trying to get Windows XP pro on it and the setup formats the drive, copies the files over and then when it reboots to continue the install the boot order skips the HD completely and boots back to the CDR again.
Grrrrrrrrrrrr.

Did you try popping the CD out after the first reboot?

Yup...
Actually I got my answer to this riddle about about an hour after posting this...
Windows blue screen during another install attempt...
Windows has detected an error trying to format this drive, blah blah blah blah blah...
I guess the drive is bad after all.

I have an Athlon 64 X2 in my machine, running 32bit XP.
When I checked the system variables, and it shows :
PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=x86
PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER=x86 Family 15 Model 43 Stepping 1, AuthenticAMD
Even though I have a 64BIT chip, is this correct?
|
|
|
|
|
Of course it's correct. 32-bit XP won't recognize anything higher. You have to be running 64-bit Windows to get anything different.

i want change setting in regedit. how i can? or i want learn about regedit
complete; a reference about this can help me.

Regedit ist pretty straightforward. What you really need to learn about in order to use regedit is the Windows Registry - the key-types, it's structure, etc.
Try the MSDN library and MSDN press books, you should find some books or articles discussing the registry and its layout.
Cheers,
Sebastian

The Microsoft Registry Editor (regedit.exe) enables you to view, search for, and change settings in your system registry, which contains information about how your computer runs. Although you can use Registry Editor to inspect and modify the registry, doing so is not recommended, as making incorrect changes can damage your system.
You might need to use Registry Editor, with assistance from a technical support professional, in order to adjust certain system settings.
Regedit.exe is automatically installed during setup and is stored in same folder as is Windows.
To start Regedit.exe
1.
Click Start, and then click Run.
2.
Type Regedit, and then click OK.
I will explain an example to hide the Run as from the Windows XP context menu
Steps:
1. Start
2. Run
3. Type regedit.exe
4. Goto HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\
Explorer
5. Right click and select New DWORD
6. Name : HideRunAsVerb
7. Data : 0 ( 1 for enable and 0 for disable)

What? Are you asking how to open RegEdit?
Trinity: Neo... nobody has ever done this before.

Did you try opening RegEdit and hitting the F1 key? Seriously, RegEdit is about as easy to use as Notepad. Though, the values you change can do some serious damage if you don't know what you changing.
