so i finished my high end P3 machine so i'm planing another build. I'v got a motherboard, CPU, ram, disk drive, and video card. The plan is P3 650, 512mb of ram(maybe), cd rom, ati rage IIC, Voodoo 2, and a SB 16+some other sound card. I don't know if i should run win 98se or win 95. I was thinking win 95 because i already have a 98 machine but i don't know which would be better for driver support.

my life runs on X86

Win98SE without a doubt. ME also works well for retro hardware with all the patches and what not that have come out since. 95 is really only if you want to relive some nostalgia or your system specs are so low that Win98 runs sluggish.
