No AGP slot on the motherboard, not very period correct then is it!!!
No Half-Life ? 😮
i just added a windows 98 patch and added 4 gigs of memory ,, i didnt have to use the service pack ,, iam running p4 socket 478 ,, it installed windows 98s fine with 1 gb ddr memory stick with out the patch ,, then i added 3 more gigs of memory
My wife wouldn't have filmed me laughing at the PC, she would have ended the whole thing with the sentence "Are you sitting at that stupid thing again?".
I experimented with numerous Nvidia drivers to see which one, along with nGlide would work with all my Windows 98 games. To begin with Windows 98 does not like video cards with more than 256mb of ram onboard, so I chose the FX5700 AGP video card, which has a cooling fan, and 256mb of ram onboard. The driver I use is the Detonator driver version 56.64, that along with nGlide version 1.05 works with all my Glide based games, and I have a great Direct 3D experience as well. My motherboard is a Pentium 4 (ASUS P4P800-VM) with a 3.0ghz CPU rocking 2GB of PC3200 ram; there is a patch online allowing Windows 98 to utilize over 512mb of ram, so I use 2GB (4GB caused issues with the sound card), and I have a 120GB SSD for storage. I use a SoundBlaster Audigy sound card, and an LG Lightscribe DVD. For sound I have Bose Companion 3 speakers, and I used the DVI output from the video card to HDMI adapter to the 27" Acer LED backlit gaming monitor. nGlide converts all Glide calls to Direct 3D, this allows me to run all the games at high resolutions without stretching the pixels. Many of the Windows 98 games work, and look best under 3dfx drivers; but, nGlide; is the next best thing. I was never interested in older DOS games either. I have 62 games for this computer, many are Glide games.The GeForce 6200 requires a much newer driver version, which makes it incompatible with many older Windows 98 games, it will not play well with nGlide as a result either. I use DirectX 9.0a as there are known issues with 9.0c. And, the Unofficial SP3 also creates problems I found, like glitching on startup and lagging, or even freezing up on shutdown, I got the "It is now safe to turn your computer off" message in big bold letters on the screen, it is totally unnecessary based on the forums online. Unreal Tournament looks stunning on my PC, it's my favourite first person shooter, next would be Serious Sam the first edition; but, I run that on my high end Windows XP computer with over 80 games. I have a 2nd Windows 98 PC with a 3dfx Voodoo 1 paired with an Nvidia MX400 32mb, 256mb of PC100 ram, AMD K6-2/500 processor, SB Live, Bose Companion 2 speakers, 19" LED monitor. Need For Speed 2SE running in Glide mode looks fantastic, and I have POD running in Glide also; 42 games in total including Wing Commander Prophecy. I am 63 years old in 2024, and have been gaming since 1997; everyone needs a hobby, this is mine. Hope someone finds this info useful, I love retro gaming! :)
Just finished a win 98 build with p4 650 oced to 4.3 ghz on a asus p5p800 with 2 sticks of corsair xms 3200 c2 v1.1 256 mb and a fx 5950 ultra, a ssd and a sb audigy 2 zs. Also have athlon xp 3200+ build oced to 2.6 ghz on a msi k7n2 delta 2 platinum with the same ram and radeon 9800 xt and same sound card. The p4 has tripple boot with win 98, xp and win 10. For the dos drivers there is a guide on making audigy 2 zs work on the internet. Probably works for live cards as well.
So I'm sat here with my windows 98 gaming pc wanting to install more ram just because I can. This video made me feel like I'm slightly less insane so thanks 😂
I'm having so much trouble with 512 on my pentium pro overdrive Windows 98 build
Very clear and easy to follow - thank you for a very helpful explanation of the process.
Why would you risk security of your system by putting such a vulnerable OS on the Internet? My Win98 machine is isolated from the internet and from the rest of my home network. I copy files to it by an SD card, which is set to read-only so the win98 machine cannot write anything to it.
Nice build. I tried a PCI 6200 on a P4 platform. It worked great for benchmarks, but I had lots of problems with games. I don't recall what drivers and games I tried though
very cool retro computer,,, i think you said you are running 512mb on your windows 98 ,, theres a windows 98 se patch for adding more memory over 1gb ,, iam running 1gb on my windows 98 ,,iam running a audigy ZS card ,,
Bro no agp what wdf
Hey! Does that work for 2gb memory? :)
go see your website i posted the fix
i know it's 2022 but did you fix the sb issue? i can help
Kind of. I put the Sound Blaster in a different computer and it just works after following the same steps. I think it had to do with the motherboard, as others have pointed out.
@@EnochDew i dun know you autoexec.bat was wrong in both entries...go to your page and review my post? may actually make that the ult win98 & dos machine ;)
awesome vid,it's 2022 now and it helped me..btw enable.vxd is in win98_57.cab
its run, thankl you so much
Thank you for this! Your video is the only one that I could find that solved the issue with a washed out screen!
I use a Yamaha YMF-724F PCI sound card in my 98se/2K PIII 800EB build, with genuine OPL3 FM hardware support in DOS, using PhilsComputerLab drivers off his website, along with a proper cone speaker for BIOS beeps. Also got with the build a 256MB 128-bit FX 5600 AGP graphics card, semi-passively cooled with a copper heatsink and a big quiet 120mm fan blowing air over it nearby, along with 512MB of Crucial PC133 Cas 2 SDRAM, dual 80GB 7200rpm PATA HDDs for programs and data, and a Seasonic SS-350ET PSU, with an AOpen MX3S Intel 815 chipset motherboard as the backbone for the rest of the system.
Quick question , do you need to install the unofficial windows 98 update before installing this patch or does it matter?
Question would the 6800 ultra oc have decent compatibility it's the most powerful win98 graphics card ever
Maybe a bit late, but i see there no problem. I recently had a 6800GS 512mb in my W98 PC, untill i switched to a X850XT. I switched to ATI cause i needed something more powerfull, but the compatibility was great with the 6800GS, i just wanted to see how the big V-Ram boy would keep up. But i saw no benefits and 256mb is more than enough.
Can MSDOS (or Win98's MSDOS mode) run in a machine with 4GB RAM?
Can we plug a voodoo 2 with that
OH and what web browser do you use? How do you install it?
How stable is it tho.... I seem to have issues with just 1gb of ram.
You could go USB for your 3.5 inch floppy and leave the 5.25 inch plugged in and see if that allows for both. I only have a 3.5 in mine. But I run all my games including CDs from images to keep the games and hardware in good shape. Also my Windows 98se computer boots just fine from a 250gb drive.
not recommended,usb 1.44mb drives all read funny
also just get a new cable with dual slots on it and a power y cable and use them both
@@DeadMouseis I thought it was a hardware conflict. Yes in fact early in the video he says the controller only supports one or the other so you at the very least need some sort of expansion card for another controller and that is a little bit of a long shot that that won't have a I/0 conflict with the current controller. USB would at least work off the USB controller and not a floppy controller. I have never had any problems reading a floppy disc on USB with any external devices. As long as it is at least Windows 98 or newer. I don't know what you mean by read funny.
@@AxiomofDiscord i'v killed many of floppies with 6 different usb drives..all disk was formatted back to reality(saved and working fine with zero bad sectors) with a actual a: drive, nah i think he does not know how to actually set the bios or deal with an IRQ conflict..and get a new dual cable...i am not trying to sound insulting...but like his sound blaster issue it is a simple fix...he had it wrong by a lot..i think the same is to say about the floppies...i have never seen a pc with a 3.0ghz bios with only one floppy except on a dell gx260
@@AxiomofDiscord "read funny" meant they would not "read disk correctly"..i very well could have gotten 6 knock off drives
i'm a little late to the party but, windows 98 and win9x by extension doesn't care about whether or not the device is PCI express as long as your device has drivers. they're a quite a few devices that are native PCI express that have drivers for win9x. the geforce 6 series PCIe and ati x300-x800 series have driver support.
This mod made my system extremely unstable and for some reason my otherwise stable video card began to greatly overheat and may be dead now. Going through the process of reverting while waiting for a new video card. Could be coincidence, but very odd.
Hi, did you test some Windows 98 older games to see how they look? I ask this because Nvidia dropped fog table and 8 bit palletized support from 6000 and on, and I don’t know how many games are affected. If you can, please, test "Thief II", mission 1, check if you can see the stars in the sky near the moon, they are white dots. Thanks
I'd use a retro case and 256 MB Ram computers of that time never had that much Ram in them and 512MB is too much, Windows 98 will never use all of that plus it can cause compatibility issues with some old games. For the hard drive I'd use a SATA hard drive or IDE to SATA adapter if there is no SATA connector on the board. SATA drives are dirt cheap and plentiful. Windows 98 has no Trim SSD support and can get funky with the OS over a short time depending on how much the computer is used. .
if you truly want the ultimate windows 98 pc in terms of performance whilst still being able to run the vast majority of games then you will need a Nvidia GeForce FX 5950 ultra 256MB. its the last of the graphics card to support Table Fog & 8-bit Paletted Textures, you can brute force the legendary 45.23 graphics card drivers to work with it giving you the ultimate compatibility with games form the early 90s all the way up to 2004 Next you will need the legendary AM2NF3-VSTA motherboard. Its has 2 SATA port both can be used at the same time with windows 98 as well as both of the IDE port and floppy port. I think its the only motherboard that can do this. most motherboard will require you to use SATA emulation in the BIOS meaning you can only use 1 IDE and 1 SATA port. This motherboard also allows for you to use DMA with all your drives :) another good feature with this motherboard is that it supports the AMD Phenom II X4 970 Black Edition 6MB cache @ 3500MHz and 2000MHz FSB The motherboard has 100% compatibility with Windows 98SE, So no missing drivers. Its also incredibly stable. and supports dual channel DDR2 RAM. It has amazing overclocking ability's for CPU and RAM. You will also need an LS120 Drive. It is PC/AT compatible and can read and right 720kB / 1.44MB disk and of course 128MB floppy disks it can reed and wright standard floppy disk much faster than a standard floppy disk drive. the 128MB floppy disk are easy to come by new old stock in the UK :D The last peace of the puzzle is the sound card, you will need the legendary Diamond Monster Sound MX300 Aureal Vortex 2 A3D PCI. Its the best PCI sound card for windows 98 in terms of compatibility with DOS and sound quality. If you want anything that is better than this sound card you will need to go to ISA sound cards. This is my setup. I have spent years trying to build the ultimate Windows 98 PC with the most compatibility and performance. I have tried hundreds of motherboard, graphics cards, sound card and hundreds of different drivers over the past 7 Years. I hope this information has been helpfall or at the verry lest interesting fore who ever reads this. Give me a message for any other suggestion. and yes I have considered putting a voodoo 2 12MB SLI in this pc and hooking it up to my FX 5950 ultra. However I just use the glide emulation but defiantly a consideration on my end :D :)
While it is fun to get a modern browser to work on Windows 98; I would caution you from using Windows 98 on the internet especially if you have that computer connected to your home network. Windows 98 is a huge security risk.
Great video thanks! I have a similar Windows 98 Monster machine in my collection. Mine has a Core 2 Duo E6750 with 2.66 GHz, 1 GB DDR2 667 RAM, Intel 945 chipset, SATA 2 controller, 128 GB SSD and a Geforce 7600 GT for PCIe x16 with 256 MB RAM. I also run two Voodoo 2 SLI cards in this PC that are connected via a PCI to PCIe bridge. So you can get these cards to work in modern PCs. Every game runs almost no more loading times. The SSD manages almost 300 MB / sec even under Windows 98 ... I had the Soundblaster 16 problem you described, which is also due to the modern mainboard. I also had these BlueScreens so that I had to switch to another sound card model. So it wasn't live, but a simple Cmedia CMI sound card. But it also works in the Dos. Many greetings, Chris
Очень полезное видео, товарищ!
Great video. By the way, thanks for the video in which you show how to depart 4 gigabytes of RAM. It's nice to see the participation of your spouse in your work. Further success to you, comrade.
Asrock 775i65g R2/R3 or Asus P5PE-VM are the better choice for an overkill Windows 98 machine. They have 865g chipset, can support conroe and wolfdale processor and have an AGP slot.
Does anyone know a good web resource for Windows 98 SE drivers for my Dell XPS M1210 laptop. I installed Windows 98SE just fine as well as added support for 4GB of RAM with help of Enoch's other video. Looking for a good place to find older Windows 98SE drivers for Dell Laptop? Please, help!
i did. this method and i still get stacks overflow :/
You're using the Diablo 2 Lord of Destruction main menu soundtrack, nice!

When you rename files to keep the original one, i recommend to rename it only adding the extension ".old", so the original file name and everything is preserved, and you will be easily able to spot it later on.
I just bought one of these at a flea market, unfortunately it doesn't power on, the power supply shows no voltage so I'm going to get a new one to start, also the battery compartment is rusted out badly so there is no way to use batteries , I'm also going to replace the contacts as well... wish me luck lol...... *update* I replaced the contacts and power supply, it now works like a charm
Any new updated videos coming?
I've upgraded the hardware to make it a decent Windows XP machine and dual boot Windows 98 and XP. I'll have to make an update video sometime soon.
Does this patch also work with Windows ME?
