And that's it for tonight! I will update the first post with download links. If someone wants to help out and type up a readme / file list, that would be awesome :) May I suggest you use ultra compression with 7z instead of zip. Will save a lot of space. Unless 7z isn't available for DOS, in which …

Geeez don't you live in the land of super broadband 🤣 I live in the bush and it's not an issue 😀 7z is another tool someone needs to install and garble up their machine.

How about we share the pain and everyone tests and adds one benchmark at a time? Basically test it under W98, if it works grab a screenshot, write a little bit about it and attach a ZIP. I'll start with Drive Speed 32 : Measures disk reading speed and plots a graph. http://i.imgur.com/iEUgyPm.png

Ok I have started testing stuff. Disk Speed 32: http://software.vgrin.host56.com/diskspeed32/ Works fine under W98SE. The only thing I add is USB storage support. I also install Direct X 8.1 if it is a fast Windows 98 system. Could you point me to downloads please? Having USB storage would make it a …

A windows update might have updated the driver. Go into control panel, device manager and press the roll-back button for the wireless. See if it helps.

What's a good HDD benchmark for Windows 95/98? The question of storage pops up all the time... Also if there is a service pack / patch pack that you Windows guys always use, we could include that as well. To have a common base so to speak.

Ok so we got quite a few links together. I guess we need to start downloading and testing them :) Ideally I would like one big ZIP archive. And inside all the Installers. I'd like to avoid having a ZIP inside a ZIP, especially those self-extracting archives. We also need to put some essentials on …
