LarsThomsen 0 #1 February 14, 2003 Hi My PC Can´t "see" my PC-8. Problaly because I´m using Win 98 and not Win 98 SE. Can anyone confirm my this?

In my experience a regular version of 98 has less problems then 98 SE. If you're just looking to upgrade, have you thought about going to XP or 2000?--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

If it's a OHCI compliant 1394 card then it should be ok as long as you have the correct drivers with it, as Win98 didn't ship with generic 1394 drivers (I'm pretty sure). I don't know what problem Dave had, but most techies would argue that 98SE was far superior to 98. But certainly WinXP is a good way to go if you have 128Mb+ ram and a 600+ CPU.Rich M Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
