Counting logic in old Win 98

I've never noticed this before, but when I put a stick into my main computer it is the same listings of file names as the original. ie list go 1 2 3 4 5 etc., with the chapter name after, so that they fall into order for the book I'm writing.

When displayed on my old laptop...Win98 SE they go 1 10 11 12 etc until they run out of 1s and to 2s Same stick - different computer, how difficult could this be? But things like this only happen when you're in a rush

I guess the answer is in some settings somewhere, or is it inherent in Win 98? but I'm frantically rushing to get back to the UK and don't have too much time to spend, searching for where uncle Bill's staff have hidden my counting logic control.
