This might be of interest to those who have installed all the Windows updates on 9x. If you type qfecheck in the Run box and look under W98 you will find there is a problem with updates 908519 & 918547. A red error will show, or if you use registry cleaners there will be no file references for these updates. This is because MS cobbled the file path references in the registry. You can correct these as follows. Copy/Paste what follows between the lines into NotePad and save as Fixes.reg ================================ REGEDIT4 [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\Updates\W98\UPD908519] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\Updates\W98\UPD908519] @="Windows 98 KB908519 Update" "C:\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM\\t2embed.dll"="5.0.2195.7073" [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\Updates\W98\UPD918547] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\Updates\W98\UPD918547] @="Windows 98 KB918547 Update" "C:\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM\\KB918547\\KB918547.exe"="4.10.0.2224" "C:\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM\\KB918547\\Q918547.dll"="4.10.0.2224" ================================ Note there should be either one or two line feeds at the end. Double click the saved file and agree the prompts. You can run one at a time if you delete the appropriate chunks. DerekW

That applies to W98SE too. DerekW
