98SE limitations?
i asked in the drives section but i think this is somewhat more software.
i have the 40 gig 2mb cache 7200rpm in my sig. i have an 80 gig seagate 8mb cache coming frome newegg. will windows 98se recognize this 80 as 80? i plan on doing cable select so no raid or anything. if it doesn't recognize it as 80 what can i do? will windows update work?

Win 98 will see a 137 GB drive. If you have any limitations, it will be in the mobo / BIOS, which should be OK assuming it's the mobo listed above.

Refer to the fdisk issue in your other thread.
Please don't crosspost, pick a forum and stick with it, if the mods think it's better in a different forum, we will move it. |

Is there a limitation on the CPU speed that Windows 98SE will recognize?

I read in a Thread here that it has problems around 2.2 GHz. It ran fine with my 2700+ which is 2.17 GHz. It seems a little strange that an extra 0.03 GHz would make a difference...

Not ALL 98 installations will come across that bug... it's a kinda hit and miss thing affecting some computers and not others.
