Conquered it!!
Had the comp/partitions so messed up I thot it'd have to be junked. Finally did the one trick I had left; reinstalled Xandros over the first install with the Custom Install and this time PAID ATTENTION. All clusters accounted for. W/98 and X/3.01 both functioning...
Thanx for the comeback:
I chose Xandro Open Version 3.01 after looking at several. Tried to install Correl but it wouldn't take. Beatrix wouldn't either.
Eguy: You are correct I'm in over my head.
Paskuda: I bookmarked that link and copied your post.
I studied till my eyes contra rotated and...
I just split the HD into a primary C then the extension into 2 partitions D, E. No idea what is a boot partition, swap file partition etc. how to make em or where to put em.
W98 on C works. Linux on D works but is sluggish.
Really I just took a fly at it. Musta done sumthing wrong. Maybe...
In the simplest possible terms:
I installed a Linux to a 4 gig HD logical partition. It now shows 0.3MB in use and 1 gig Free.
Where did the other 3 gigs get to?
The other partitions haven't changed. The total gigs are the same. The total gigs in the Extension are the same. Has this...
Thanx-
I've been to that site: ball bearing fans. I shoulda said 70 mm sleeve bearing fans. I doubt there is such an animal. Have a ball bearing fan on the CPU rattles to much for me. New too.
Yeah Euros. Forgot. From rate.com I get 1.35 Dollars/Euro.
Fan $20, Shipping $31, Hmmmmm :-(
Where can I get 70mmX15mm Fan? Can't connect anyplace. Pabst makes one but I can't figure their price in German (Marks I spose), Anybody in zees coontry make 70 mm fans? Or at least use English in the checkout section?
After 6 years the left pane in Windows 98 explorer is blank. I use it all the time.
The Forward and Back Buttons are greyed out too. There is an X which closes the pane so I know the pane is open.
I've checked and unchecked everything I can find; evidently not the correct one(s). WhatshudIdo?
eMachines T3624, Just bot it couple days ago
I lookt for memory upgrades lots of sites including the eMachines site and they all cough up PC2700 DDR.
I about wore Google out. Learned a lot but not exactly what this is. Tried Email support on eMachnes site - it wouldn't function. Sure want the...
From the memory stick label:
KR 0445
PC 3200U 30331 - A1
M386L 3223ETM -GGG
256 MB DDR PC3200 CL3
Is this DDR 333 or DDR 400?
Is it Unbuffered Non-ECC or Registered ECC
Who made It?

For several months I've been unable to update Windows 98 and no longer get notice of critical updates. Neither functions are working. No matter what link I click on, or its location (even within the Mirosoft Site), if it refers to "Windows Update" I get this mssg:
Thank you for your interest in...
Hi- Unplugd, replugd, 3/4 hr, clock never missed a second. Never has except it gains time slowly. I think the problem is elsewhere. Here's why:
I installed W98 on a different (old) comp from the same CD as for my (new) comp. Checked the serial numbers etc.
Go to screen saver > settings and...
Well that didn't do it tho the battery was 5yrs + 10 months old and the book said 5 years so it was due. Never lost the CMOS settings, took a few seconds to change.
W98: I've set the monitor power setting to turn off the monitor after X minutes.
When this comp was new 5 years ago this feature worked OK except about 2-3-4 times a year the monitor wouldn't shut off unless I changed the setting time. Gradually all of a sudden by now I have to reset the time...
