  2. Windows 98 problem

    why not try to use virtual PC and emulate windows 98 on a XP machine or did someone already suggest that?

  3. Windows 98......

    Windows 98 SE is Windows 9x and Windows 2000 is Windows NT. Some software may not run on Windows 2000 where it did on Windows 98 SE (ISA especially).

    Windows 98 SE does have USB support but it isn't near as plug n' play as it is today. You have to make sure to install drivers (if nothing else, generic Microsoft drivers) for all USB devices. The Windows 98 SE disk comes in real handy for that.

    Publisher 98 Compatibility

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft community.

    I understand that you want to know if Publisher 98 is compatible with Windows 10 and I’ll help you out.

    Since Publisher 98 is a very old program and the chances of that program working with Windows 10 is very thin. Before you run the program in compatibility mode, install the program in compatibility mode and then run the program in compatibility
    mode (Follow the steps ‘run in compatibility’ given below to install the program in compatibility mode.)

    Since Publisher 98 is compatible with Windows 95, you can try running Publisher 98 in compatibility mode for Windows 95.

    Run in compatibility mode and check.

    Follow these steps to run the program in compatibility mode and check if that helps.



    a. Right-click on the Publisher 98 file and click on ‘properties’.

    b. Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’
    and select Windows 95 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation.

    c. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if you are able to run the program.

    Hope this will help you. Keep us posted with the status of the issue. We’ll be glad to assist if you need further assistance.

    Thank you.
