I am fixing up this old computer for a buddy and it seems to be getting alot of error messages on bootup. I was thinking about re-installing win98 if I can't get rid of the messages. Is it still possible to get win98?

You should be able to find disks for sale here and there. No talking of 'downloading' it, though, please, since it's still protected by copyright and so such things as that are illegal. eBay should have some things too. An example search:

If it's that small of a hard drive then I would put some stripped down version of Linux on it before I would Win98 but that's just me.

Haven't seen you around in quite some time, or have you just been hiding?

This is my first time back in a long time. I got me life pre-occupied with other things and kind of stopped with the web/graphic design thing. I plan on starting it up again. So I'll come out the bushes and you will see me arond alot more again.
