You're not making any sense! What drivers did you try to install? What "multimedia list" are you looking at? Where are you trying to select something as a sound card? i did try explainin it best as i could..it says there is no device that can do the soundfonts what i meant with the multimedia list …

Don't know what celeron your running, so it maybe already at 66mhz FSB. Most Pentium II\III era celerons are. That is anyway, until you get to the Tualatin based celerons. It could be a Northwood Celeron for all we know at this point. i can ask the person who build the computer what type of …

it only goes down to 200 in the cpu speed ore otherwise its in the 100's. If you can set your Front side bus to 66mhz or 50mhz (if mobo board supports it.) that will then be the slowest your cpu will run. Without disabling the cache. i can ask the person who build the computer what type of …

it goes to a black screen for a moment and then back onto the desk So you're launching the program by double-clicking it in Explorer? You should try running it from the command line instead; otherwise, you will not be able to see any error messages produced by the program. noting happens in dos …

There are many different slowdown methods, but the choice of which one is the best to use depends on what hardware you are using specifically. Jazz Jackrabbit has the Runtime Error 200 bug, doesn't it? It is easiest to simply apply one of various patches to fix the problem, like TPPATCH. it goes to …

The key is to explicitly enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP in the Windows 8 network settings. However, it really is easier to just dispense with Windows Networking entirely. Get a tiny SSH server for your Windows 8 PC and an SFTP client for your Windows 98 computer. It will work without any problems. You …

I don't know what your general computer skills are like, but just share the folder the same way you'd share it with other Win7 or 8 computers. Then when you turn off password-protected sharing, the Win98 computer will be able to access the share using the UNC path (like "\\win7computer\sharename"). …

I've successfully got Windows 95, 98, NT 3.51 and NT 4 to access shares on a Windows 7 desktop. The most fool-proof method is to disable password-protected sharing . Obviously this comes with its own set of risks, but it's less faffing about than trying to get Win9x NTLMv2 authentication working …
