In my never ending quest for fully functional Win98 PC I bought I am having troubles reading discs.
I have an Nvidia Riva TNT2 inside and it's stuck in 16bit colour 640x480 or something similar and all games either refuse to install or play. I have a stack of discs I found but they are all finalized so cannot burn the graphics card drivers onto them.
I have USB Sticks but WIn98 has no native support for them, I have seen the mass support drivers but no way of getting them onto this machine. I have a new DVD Drive in the mail in case it's that causing the issues.
Push comes to shove, is to get it online and yes I know the risks nowadays of doing so.
Is there anything else I can try? I know it's beating a a dead horse messing with Win98 but I enjoy it and old tech.
Game discs read fine, burnt discs on my Win10 machine do not, why would that be? I have found ONE disc it will read and I can see and move contents to the desktop. It is a "Signalex DVD-R 8x 4.7GB" so I may buy some more.
