I did a quick search but didnt come up with anything so im asking here. I have a Compaq Presario 1200 with 6.4 gig hd, 460?mhz Athlon processor and 155 megs of ram. Bought it used with Win2k allready loaded on it so i dont have the OS disk.
My problems: Havnt been able to get AOL (any version) to connect properly with the internal modem. (7.0 will connect allways on the 3rd try but page links and internet browsing still wont work). Also, i cant get my wifi card/drivers to install properly either.
Im sure the problems im encountering are settings in 2k that i just cant figure out, so im thinking about formatting and installing Win98se. I dont have this disk either so before i do anything, i wanted to ask,,,,any suggestions for an OS that doesnt take up much space on the hard drive and that is more personal (not business) user friendly? By the way, the label on front of the computer says "Designed for Windows 98"
I mainly want to be able to log on to the net with wifi and the built in modem, also use my mapping software which is running fine at this time. Any suggestions/help would be appreciated!
