Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition Upgrade Reviews
The best choice is to choose a full version of the product and enjoy the benefits of not being left with artifacts and leftover's of your previous operating system which can lead to instability in certain cases. Generally speaking, to get the best performance from any operating system a clean install of a full version is recommended. I would only buy this on a limited budget.
If you are programming or doing fundamental computer work then do check out Linux because it might be what you need and learning Linux is like DOS with a bit of windows with all the free fundamental software you could want. Well XP2 has the games and Linux not, so we can stop there. For speed on an OS, well Linux is a much faster, but XP2 is not bad on a system with half the ram of the above and a 1 GHz processor. Running Windows 95 and that means Windows 98 is illegal in your country and you are in the land of needing a new computer fast, feeling that you might have a box that looks like it is running windows 3.1 and to be honest now is your chance to move to Windows 2000 for a more solid operating system. Well the same as above, but you have a better selection of stuff and to be honest multimedia applications work well on an apple, and why shouldn't they since Apple is industry standard for that kind of design work, so what does XP2 have to offer. Expect to loose everything to a virus and have your address details stolen with all your VISA card info. XP2 PRO is 5 stars if you visit a place on the web called Gibson research incorporated, a highly respected individual in the security community who developed a way that people can test the vulnerability of their PC on-line. Why not Apple.
The machine like the above is a 5 star experience but God help those who don't address security issues the moment they go on-line with it which is a bit like just driving your car off a cliff. Obviously stability (not to be confused with security). 1GB of RAM, no problem. I have not found XP2 doing much annoying or something that I could not fix with Google. 256mb graphics cards, LCD monitors on the cheap, DVD-R media, Broadband, now is the time to upgrade your machine.
XP2 is a very stable operating system. Also remember, forget the HOME EDITION, go PRO. It is more stable than Windows 2000. Bookmark that page and use it to have a somewhat secure and stable XP2. Why not Linux. He developed a series of a security fixes for XP1 and XP2 problems. Even NT users found more stability in Windows 2000, 98 users mostly gamers or downloaders, seeing the blue screen of death often, while Win 2K users doing something a little more software intensive like multimedia, graphics and servers that 98 could not manage. There are obvious things you must do after you install it like download Firefox and use it instead of IE and try to use realplayer instead of mediaplayer, use Microsoft's AntiSpyware, don't use the firewall, use zonelarm free instead, spend on a good anti-virus software package, turn off the preview pane in Internet Outlook mail or try to find a free mail browser, make sure you get all the latest windows updates, careful what you put into your machine or extract, careful what mail you open, change passwords every week, and you can achieve a secure on-line machine that can do anything most computers can do right now with a company that has admitted that it has a security problem that will be addressed with future updates, but overall one should be impressed with the OS for stability, not speed or security, but for not crashing, as long as there are no hardware configuration conflicts, that do happen, get someone else to build your machine and blame them when it doesn't come together (and it wont come together because things are now cutting edge so get it done elsewhere; if your task bar hangs this is because of routers or USB hubs that are not compatible).
For that reason, I made the upgrade. A pimpin' fast graphics card and you have a machine that can play Half-Life 2 on full resolution. The only reason to buy a computer between the release of XP and now was if you did not have one and even then plenty of second hand units going around. AMD have some nice chips but the hyperthreading Intel P4 3.0GHz is a killer chip. Broadband on the increase, DVD-R media and life might get less expensive if you are into computers and certainly a whole pile better.
Installing is a big deal because you need Internet for verification; however it is fast on a high end system. So came the day of the duel-processor, having an NT Dual 500mhz, upgrading to Win2K and you still had a fast machine, 64mb and 128mb games cards never really impressing you that much to get a better machine, a games console maybe cheaper and better, XP a little slow for you and besides, 2K was compatible with nearly everything and you could duel boot linux for fun. The best games of the 21st century were released before Christmas this year, with 2005 bringing lots more to come. Year: 2005.
It was a generic cd that had been recorded. I received an illegally copied cd. I immediately contacted Amazon.Com and they referred me to American Computer.
I ordered this and it was to be filled by American Computer. It is advertised as guaranteed to be new and would have the product key. The label affixed to the cd and the label that was inserted into the case were both printed on an ink jet printer.
This was a scam. Amazon.Com is now processing a credit for me.
There was no product key. Totally useless software.
I was feeling used rather than "User". Recently, I wrote a negative review about my negative experiences with MS products over the years. objectively reporting even to the extent of referring a customer to an other vendor to satisfy that customer's needs. As always Sincerely. Hi out there;. Again Thank You Amazon.com we love ya. Soon after the XP software was no longer featured on Amazon.com neither was ME nor 2000, they disappeared along with my negative reviews.
(The richest man in the world)one bill gates, featured in the movie; "Pirates of Silicon Valley". Highly suspicious, eh. How sad for MS that they as yet don't understand that simple basic process. I replied with a review that my decision not to buy XP was based on the negative customer reviews of XP, rather than the avalanch of phoney 5 star reviews then on site. John King AKA jhnkij@aol.com OK it was a small order but it was an order made with confidence. I recently ordered a book from Amazon.com and added another book to that order based only on Amazon's "Other customers also bought". Amazon.com has taught me over the years to trust them.
Throughout all this where was Amazon.com. To my amazement (my apologies to Amazon) it was published on the Amazon web site on the customer review list associated with the MS XP OS. Days after my review published Customer reviews of 5 stars to XP numbering over 800 obscured the negative customer reviews already onsite. To my ,pleased, amazement the following occurred;. I was a poor little David with my little slingshot attacking Goliath.
Now, featured is Win 98SE upgrade (It's unclear if this is an upgrade of Win 98SE or what and would'nt it be clearer if it was called Win 98 third edition). Running quietly in the background doing what a responsible business does. Also WinSE upgrade is selling at a 25% increase in the usual upgrade price an obvious display of immense gall. To those of you out there that feel your voices are too small to be heard, I encourage you to speak up and let's together make this world the place it ought to be.
i reccommened to upgrade 2 windows ME version of 98 exept more crashes and lockups and blue windows so if your hoping for this product to be new from you original windows 98 version i just want you to know that there is nothing new exept your system having a million problems , slowness and also be prepared to spend alot of money on support. Hi i installed this product thinking that it might have some new stuff from my old version of windows 98 well i have two computers one that was running windows 98 and another with windows 98 Se. well windows 98 second edition had basicly nothing new prior to the reg.
