Hi, I am trying to help a buddy out. He just bought new hardware, nothing to fancy.
BIOSTAR NF4ST-A9
MWAVE 512MB DDR400
XFX GEFORCE 6200 256MB PCI EXPRESS
WD 80GB 800JD SATA 7200RPM 8MB
He only wants to run Win98 cuz he doesnt do anything, and will be used for work only. Does not want to buy WinXP. So I broughtover my copy of Winxp to see if it would work. Installs WinXP and boots to the desktop without any problems. Install Win98 just fine. Goto boot and it just hangs after about 10 seconds of booting. I am at a loss now on what to tell him other than go get a copy of XP.
