1. Comment - No Fix for Critical Windows 98, Me Flaw

   (Jun 13, 2006 - 10:59 PM)

   I have a Gateway Pentium III 650 MhZ system that is operating on Windows 98SE and I know it's a dinasour and I would love to be able and update it and did try to update the operating system to the Home Edition XP of Windows that a close friend bought me but from using the part of that CD to see if my system was compatible, it came back with an answer of my system would need many, too many updated driver type files, some i couldn't even locate, and also 2 pieces of my hardware not even recognized by XP. So, I didn't even continue trying to update the operating system. I have a new WIN XP CD for sale if any body wants it! Never used! I would love to update my system, computer and operating system and all, but I just cannot afford to do something like this since I'm completely disabled, being wheel chair bound and my computer is my only enjoyment I have in this world. My system/computer is quite slow I realize, taking several minutes for some web pages to load, but at least it has and is my daily enjoyment. For how much longer . . doesn't sound like very long! I've heard of people and also some computer companies that help out people like myself, providing a disabled person a computer, but I've not been able to come by any information of the sort. Yes, I'd sure like to have an updated system/computer, but I just cannot afford it by no means, and so looks like I'll be having to stay with the Win98SE OS and my slow computer for a long time to come. I really think this is more of a scare tactic to get people to update and upgrade more than anything. Bill Gates, if you read this news forum, you've got enough money, more than you will ever know about, how about helping someone out?
