windows 98 or 98 se?

[Chad Bowling]

my computer has windows 98 se on it but its going slow and missing vxd files or something like that and i cant really download anything on the computer and i was going to reinstall windows but should i install regular 98 or 98 se i do not have any disc to install with yet i dont know which one i should get

Second Edition.

Agreed.

The second edition of 98 had fixes for bugs in the OS and a few added features.

Not sure, but an upgrade to XP Home may be just $100.00 (USD).  In my opinion, XP combines the best features of Windows 2000 and Windows 98 SE and Me in one OS.

The computer may not support Windows XP. The requirements are very heavy in comparison.

Good point, Raptor.

Chad should check the Windows Catalog before considering an upgrade:
