Re: 98SE and P4 EE

I don't believe there's a single core A64 that can match that P4. But the heat from that Prescott at that speed is awfully annoying. No worse than some of the Phenom II chips. It's all relative. Yup, but that Phenom II is a quadcore, so 75% of all CPU power is wasted right there. Apparently NT4.0 …

Re: Easiest way to duplicate 9x on "new" harddrive?

in Milliways
DiskExplorer can browse VHD images, if I'm not mistaken. I was reading a while ago that it might also be possible to mount them as virtual drives in Windows, but it can be tricky. Thanks for the tip. Something that can browse virtual harddrives as if they are zip files is perfect for me, …

Re: Windows ME setup:Custom, what do -you- pick?

Multilanguage Support - Would like to understand this better myself. Does it mean you can see other language docs properly? has it anything to do with different kb layouts or getting other characterswhen typing? etc My guess is this is about being able to display other characters properly (instead …

Re: Very Old Games On New Systems?

For me, Vogons has become synonimous with "Retro PC Hardware" discussions (and the occasional new pc hardwares discussions) and help. No other sites come close to this level of discussions. And this is one of the most well maintained, unadulterated website on the net. No eye poking ads. The colours …

Re: Easiest way to duplicate 9x on "new" harddrive?

dont a lot of hdd manufactures offer free tools for cloning a drive ? That may be, but simply having 2 harddrives attached and then dragging the whole Windows directory to an empty bootable harddrive is just so much more convenient. I don't like all those extra programs, to me they are basically an …

I hope the formatting isn't all too confusing. If someone pops up with a post with proper formatting, I'll sneakily copy his techniques :P Accessibility - I just enable this, as it well...why disable it? :D Accessibility Options Accessibility Tools Accessories Briefcase - I enable this, it has …

Windows ME setup:Custom, what do -you- pick?

in Milliways
Just curious, for the people familiar with setting up Windows ME, in the beginning you get to choose if you want a normal setup, minimal setup etc. Of course I always pick the custom setup :D But frankly, I don't exactly know what many of these exactly do, let alone considering ME is over a decade …

Found 1 util that's as easy as what I wanted, Winimage! Too bad it's not free, I don't know (and doubt) if Winimage free version can browse those files. Perhaps an old version of Winimage can do that? I always loved Winimage, and now I love it even more! :D Now the only thing I'd need to do is write …

Another question:Anyone happen to know if it's possible to browse a Virtual Harddisk? The idea is to install 9x on a Virtual PC (=faster and results in a cleaner install. Also MUCH easier to tinker with) and then copy the entire stuff off of the virtual harddrive?
