Have just installed AOL8 and (fingers, and everthing else, crossed) so far, no problems. This was part of a complete rehash from W98SE to XP Home.
I should point out that I had no wish to upgrade, and still don't, but it appears that my present machine has been specifically designed to operate with XP and throws a 'wobbly' when it's set up with 98. I thought this was a load of nonsense when the retailer told me this, but it certainly seemed to be that way. I had previously been under the impression that ALL PCs, by their very nature were 'backwards compatible' in OS terms but it seems that this may not be the case.
Any comments from the gurus, please?
