Windows 98 up grade to windows 98 2nd edition

[wdohrmann]

I am still running 2windows 98 on an older computer. I am going to upgrade soon, but I find that I have an application that will not run on the windows 98 but will run on the window 98 2nd edition. I have gone to various sites to check out prices on the windows 98se and find it to be more expensive than I think it should be, since MS is going to stop supporting the 98 series before long. Any one have any suggestions other than upgrade right now? Was there an upgrade from the window 98 to the 2nd edition?

Have you tried EBay?

Yes,
The was an upgrade and it's probably available...It really helped the network settings
problems....You might go ahead a do a search thru a portal, or thru ebay...It's not
a bad program, it still works....(Or, maybe go to MS and see if they can help.)

You'll find that most stores that still sell the Windows 98SE "upgrade" CD still want $90 - $100 for it. If you buy one from a third-party source at a cheaper price, make sure that the 25-digit product code comes with it.

another place you might check, a local computer shop. I was able to get an original install for $15.00 at a small shop.
