Title: No Hotmail on Win 98?
Post by: comda on December 26, 2009, 12:19:54 PM

Hi Lately i have been working on my old windows 98 laptop. I tried internet on it and it worked fine but when i tried hotmail it wouldn't load. The corner of the page said done with the little yellow triangle.

Any help would be very helpful.

This seemed to work for others... (http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.win98.internet&tid=c3d2793d-241f-4c1c-8811-ba9cde5daaea&cat=en_US_d7ebdf9e-4899-4137-93fa-caf1e93c45d7&lang=en&cr=US&sloc=&p=1)

No the newer versions of MSN Messenger don't work on Win98. Download the older version MSN Messenger 7.0 Beta (http://www.filehippo.com/download_msn_messenger/43/) or MSN Messenger 6.2 (http://www.filehippo.com/download_msn_messenger/42/). I know 7.0 works on my WinME.

No version of LIVE will work on Win9x/ME.  ;)
