BCFC11 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 ebay is the only place I've found them just wondered if anyone knew anywhere local. All I want it for is to play the classic championship manager games believe it or not. I've heard there are ways around it but not being very computer illiterate I'd struggle so thought I'd just install windows 98 on my old laptop and be done with it.

screech Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Have you tried running the program in compatibilty mode from properties? Right click on the icon, choose properties, compatibilty, check box run in compatibilty and scroll down to win 98. Apply settings and start program. Worth a go.

Guest Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 I think we recently got rid of our old 98 MSDN discs in work a while back! If you were planning on installing it on a newer laptop you'd probably have huge driver issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JammyOne Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 What's the reason you want to use Windows 98? Perhaps there's a work around. I do have Windows 2000 if that helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 The other thing you might want to consider is you can run a virtualised version of XP in windows 7 really easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
