I did the best I could. I found about 10 helpul websites (a few from this site's contributors) and a bunch of other Googles, as well as some archival digging.
Note that any if an update replaced a previous, I DON'T show the original, and also, this is fundamantally for the OS only, with little or no info on Office, Outlook, etc... http://www.emarkay.com/win98se/windowsupdatedata.html Hope this is useful. MRK |

Since MS isn't providing any new updates for 98/SE, just for I.E. 6 and O.E 6,
the best update or upGRADE I've found is the Unofficial SP2 for windows 98/SE. It adds a lot of fixes and increased functionallity to 98/SE. Heck, lets just call it Windows 99. Add the Defrag program from Windows ME, which runs about ten times (10X) faster than the old\ '98 Defrag, and you've got a sweet running OS for older and slower PC's. Cheers Andromeda43 |

Good work.
It would be even better if you would also provide direct download links to files. And you are missing a bunch of updates. They are all here [+ links to other sites that have lists of updates/patches/(hot)fixes]: Windows ME: http://www.mdgx.com/web.htm#WME Windows 98 SE: http://www.mdgx.com/web.htm#98SE Windows 98 SP1: http://www.mdgx.com/web.htm#SP1 Windows 98: http://www.mdgx.com/web.htm#W98 Windows 95B/95C OSR 2.x: http://www.mdgx.com/web.htm#OSR2 Windows 95/95a OSR1: http://www.mdgx.com/web.htm#WIN System Add-ons: http://www.mdgx.com/add.htm DirectX: http://www.mdgx.com/dx.htm MS IE: http://www.mdgx.com/ietoy.htm WMP: http://www.mdgx.com/wmp.htm Drivers: http://www.mdgx.com/drv.htm DOS 6/7/8 files: http://www.mdgx.com/dos.htm More DOS 6/7/8 files: http://www.mdgx.com/speed.htm If you care to create a list of updates, all links above are included in a plain text file called SOFTWARE.TXT, part of W95-11D.EXE: http://www.mdgx.com/95.htm End Of Life Support: MSKB: Extended Support for Windows 98, 98 SE + ME: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/lifean1/ Microsoft: Windows Life-Cycle Policy: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/lifecycle/ MSKB: Microsoft Support Lifecycle: http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/ Microsoft: End of Support for Windows 98, 98 SE + ME: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/support/endofsupport.mspx More like these: http://www.mdgx.com/newtip98.htm#98L Windows 95, 98 + ME specs + info + upgrades: http://www.mdgx.com/win.htm Windows 95, 98 + ME versions + builds + editions: http://www.mdgx.com/ver.htm#TAB Have fun.

Good work. It would be even better if you would also provide direct download links to files. And you are missing a bunch of updates. Thanks. As for links, I don't want to draw the ire and wrath of Mr. Gates. They are easy to Google, and there's a Japanese site that has just about all of them - another rather easy Google find. Will look over these tomorrow, but remember I omitted the ones that were replaced by newer ones, and ignored IE and Outlook and other "peripheral" programs. Also tried to stay specifically to 98SE. BTW, your site was a big help and an inspiration. MRK |

Email sent.
I am going to reinstall Win98SE again (new HDU) and so I am going to"play" with a few tips, tricks, and files beforehand. Just a FYI. MRK |
