Looks pretty nice. I don't do 98SE anymore though...

UNOFFICIAL Windows98 Second Edition Service Pack 2.0.1 (Freeware)

Microsoft has never released a service pack for Windows98 SE, but I made
a Service Pack for Windows98 SE users. It contains all Windows98 SE
updates from Windows Update site and more.

It is a self-extracting and self-installing pack like Microsoft's update
files. Thus, you cannot choice files individually. However, the pack
installs only required fixes for your system. Uninstallation is possible
from Add-Remove Programs. However, I don't recommend uninstallation of
the pack, if you don't have any problem.

This is only for WINDOWS 98 SECOND EDITION ENGLISH. I highly recommend
that you should backup your system before installing the pack. You must
have at least 32 MB of RAM.

It contains only operating system updates. It does NOT contain Internet
Explorer 6, DirectX 9, Media Player 9 and their updates.

MS should be putting this together. It looks like a great many are
chipping in to get the job done...

Mel, is your Service Pack available? How big is it for a download?

Downloading now, question- is it safe for a W98SE puter that works fine
now?

Been using 98SE with this applied for months, no problems here at all.

FWIW, while I have never (yet) had the opportunity to try it, I've kept
an eye on the program and looked for comments on it ever since it came
out. I don't recall anyone ever reporting bad results. YMMV.

I guess you should ask yourself that question everytime you download a
program or program update from the internet.

The question came from the fact that this is a large, invasive,
comprehensive group of changes to W98SE. Not something I'd install casually.

BTW, I heard from the author of Unlocker.
-------
quote:
I am not convinced Unlocker worked for anyone on W98.
It is only designed for W2K and WXP.

Unlocker needs the following DLLs:
comctl32.dll lpk.dll ws2help.dll ws2_32.dll usp10.dll
imm32.dll psapi.dll msvcrt.dll user32.dll advapi32.dll
rpcrt4.dll gdi32.dll shlwapi.dll kernel32.dll
ntdll.dll shell32.dll

So ask these libraries from the person pretenting it
is working on his W98 and try them on your machine.
Put them in C:/program files/Unlocker/ so that not to
tamper with your system.

Anyway I am quite sure you are wasting your time and
the person pretending to get it working on W98 must be
mistaken.

I'm sure you're not pretending, but you are surely lucky it works in your
W98SE. You must have these files already. I will check, some of them may be
VB files I already have.

Thanks for the comments, Mark. Everybody's registry is different based upon
history, so I'm careful.
