Windows ME - Error in VxD?

[randomgypsy]

yeh i have found info to show that the error may be due to a problem with drivers

[Constance]

Windows 98 [...] i have 2 dwbload the drivers off the internet.

So what ? Download them and burn them to a CD once and for all, then you'll be much more stable than with ME ...

Blame the manufacturers for not providing drivers ^^

2. Mixcraft 3 does not work on win 98
3. Getright (Latest Version) Does not work on win98

Such things happen ... will happen with later OSes too in a while ...

4. My rooter does not support win98

Your router is not supposed to have anything to see with the OS on your PC ...

5. Windows Media Player 9 series or Winamp Latest Bundle does not work on windows 98.

They do... or at least, WinAmp does.
(WMP might be limited to version 7, I'm not quite sure ...)

6. I tried Win 98 and 5 new errors come.

Which are ? ...

7. Zonealarm does not work on win98

ZoneAlarm sucks anyway.

8. AVG does not work on Win98

It does.

9. I cannot use the ICS Functions that are in win 2000 and me

Well yeah, of course, you can't use what's not there, sounds obvious ...

10. Slow Startup
11. Slow Shutdown

Hmm I wonder how an older OS, that requires less ressources, should be slower to start and shutdown ... unless it's a driver issue ^^

hahhah - zonealarm does not suck, zonealarm is the best. it saved my comp millions of times from these bloody hackers and other stuff.
Avg LATEST VERSION does not work on win 98. whats the point of having antivirus software if its not updated??
Winamp dusent even work on Windows ME properly so it dusent work at all on win98.

and win 98 is slow startup + shurdown because it is really $H!T and ruins your computers bios.

I have a VERY slow computer (350mhz with 64mb memory running windows me).
it is VERY SLOW!!! (I have to mention that a few times!!)
i wanted to ask if anyone knows any freeware/shareware software that you can use to clean up and tune up your computer like windows live onecare.
Oh, and I have a VxD problem.
Check that in the thread Error in Vxd??? or sumthing like that. :confused
I would be very grateful if it is fixed!!!

You just ruined your own credibility (that wasn't any high yet). Troll spotted, I'm not replying anymore in this thread.

a way to speed up your startup:

Here is a tip to shave a few seconds of the Windows 98 boot time.

You can tell Windows 98 not to search for your floppy drive when your PC is booted up. You will still be able to use the floppy drive as normal and Windows 98 will search for it only when you click on its icon in Explorer.

To switch this feature off Right-click on My Computer and choose Properties then select the Performance tab. Click on the File System button, then on the Floppy Disk tab. Deselect the option to "Search for new floppy disk drives each time your computer starts.
