Hi itsme_4ucz, can you give me more information? Please write your system configuration, and your Internet Explorer version. Did you get any message during the installation? Can you open Windows in safe mode? Do you have a laptop?

vmm.vxd ;shell.vxd ; vtd.vxd ; vxdldr.vxd ;vpicd.vxd ; or vwin32.vxd

guys helpme out with this .

Thx.

i know why, you have Windows 98 (not se, the first windows 98). This patch was made just for Windows 98 SE (second edition). I know all about this due to it happened to me :pinch: . You have to reinstall Windows 98 in MS-Dos. I couldn't get into Safe Mode due to this so you have to install it in MS-Dos. If you don't know how, put in your start up disk, boot with CD support, put your Windows 98 disk in and then type yourdrive:\setup .

Hope it helps!

I don't know why, but some users end up at paysforsurveys.com. Please try the mirror, or go MajorGeeks.

Web1000 has a nasty habit of sending non-US users to sites like that (or even porn sites). I had this issue with them before once too. Another good free host to try is Netfirms.

Wanted to install it on my sis's PC but seems risky...

I'm the same type of person when it comes to programs, I dont install anything that I dont know what it is.

I had some parts laying around, I put them together, installed 98SE and the UNOFFICIAL WIN98SE SP1, no problems at all.

I will try to take some screenshots of the process, there is nothing much to see anyway.

/edit - Screenshots

Could anyone help me? I'm trying to add more screenshots to the same thread, I have options Keep current attachment, Remove attachment and Replace with a new attachment, I already loaded a screenshot, when I try to load the next one, it replaces the 1st one, I have it on Keep current attachment. Thanks

It appears that this Pack is for only suitable for a PC which meets a specific set of rules.

Obviously the first one being that it is for Win98 Second Edition, but it looks like some are having additional problems, I just wish that the problems could be highlighted so that a more strict set of guidelines can be created.

That was mentioned at all times, its even on the title.

If those people that have problems will post a screenshot or type the exact error message, it will help Gape for the FINAL release.

I really don't have any idea why some ppl are having problems, its just an executable file, it extracts itself and continues to the installation and copying files itself.

After that, it ask you to reboot computer, thats all.

I built a computer to test it, it is a 133mHZ, 24MB RAM, 2GB HD, etc, and had no problems.

Cool. Perhaps people are having problems with this after months of use on a PC. I think it's best to install all this stuff straight after a clean install of 98SE. That's just my thought though. I'm going to get a second hand laptop soon. I will install it on that and see how it goes (afresh that is). Cheers for making such a great package. Maybe some one should make a similar thing for the standard Windows 98. Be more of a challange.
