I got my “new” Windows 98 PC, and it didn’t power up at first. I found out that some components has been knocked loose, probably by the mail service, including the CPU! I reseated everything and it worked!

Got it connected to the internet via ethernet, and it’s far faster and less cumbersome than on my laptop. Looking into setting up a VPN for it. Have been told there’s a community updated version of OpenVPN that works on 98, so will try to get that and connect to Mullvad with it.

@softwarepagan Well right now I’m having issues getting certain games to work, and am looking into a VPN/proxy solution so I can safely use the system online. · 1 year ago
