Unfortunately, I still use Windows 98 and would like to use OD to the best of my abilities...limited, as they may be. My system keeps crashing after installing the OD cd, so I have put a minimum of the programs on it. What components do I NEED, at the minimum, to run it successfully? What components should I avoid? (Like PocketBlinds, CursorXP-which I don't need/can't use.) I'm having a hard time staying alive with all the crashes...there must be something that I'm using that doesn't work under 98, but I'm having a hard time finding just what it is. I've read a lot of the installation instructions...is it me or are they hard to locate? All I want to know is what is Windows 98 compatible and what is not. I have enough hard drive capacity and memory...If I could find Windows XP at a reasonable price, I'd get it...for Pete's sake-the only reason that I HAVE a computer is that I won it on a game site a few years ago. (Okay...it's a Dell WebPC. No snickering!) I DO have the fastest digital cable internet service that is available, so I'm not totally hopeless....or am I? Thanks to anyone who has any suggestions.
