but what i mean is when you click the start button the menu comes up and
it has Windows98Second edition on the banner.I meant replacing 98 second edition with
98se2me killer replacements.

That's the %windir%\explorer.exe BMP [Windows BitMaP].but what i mean is when you click the start button the menu comes up and

98se2me killer replacements.
In 98SE2ME I'm using a custom modded explorer.exe which shows the "Windows 98 Second Edition" banner, "borrowed" from Gape's SP2, and patched as described here:
http://www.dr-hoiby.com/TrayIconIn256Color/
Al this info is also detailed in READ1ST.TXT:
http://www.mdgx.com/9s2m/READ1ST.TXT
under the "98SE2ME.PIF COMPLETE GUIDE" section, please see "* Option 6:".
I could patch explorer.exe to show "Windows 98 SE Killer Replacements" or something similar, but I need at least a few people to vote for this, and so far you're the only one.
Edit:
Now there are 2 of you who want this, so I'll give it another thought.
And besides, 98SE2ME option 3 installs another explorer.exe, the newer one from WinME CD, which displays the "Windows Millennium Edition" banner.
If you like to see a 98SE2ME or Killer Replacements or similar banner, you can mod explorer.exe in Resource Hacker [freeware]:
http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/
and replace BMP #157 [under 1033 for English editions] with your own, you can even put your name in it if you wish.
To create a 16 colors BMP is easy, just open MSPAINT.EXE.
Export the original one from within explorer.exe, open it up in Mspaint, look at its witdth x height, and then create your own with same dimensions. Make sure the file size is aproximately the same as the original BMP.
If it's not, reduce the number of colors to 16.
Better, you can also use any of these graphics editors [most are free(ware)] for this purpose:

Sorry guys, 98SE2ME is about upgrading Win98 SE to WinME level, not downgrading to Win95B/95C OSR2.x level. ;(stability remains stable and i notice a increase in speed
with shell32.dll from 98SE Thanks for the tip Marius '95
And besides, in order to add Win95B/95C explorer.exe to 98SE2ME, you will need a Win95B/95C OSR2.x setup CD or CABs [which you have to provide at the time of installation], a.k.a. a legitimate license to own such a CD or CABs.
And as you might have guessed, this unfortunately is beyond the scope of 98SE2ME.
But if you wish to do this at home, Marius '95 has graceously provided the guide [excerpt from READ1ST.TXT, the "KNOWN BUGS + FIXES" section]:

BUG:
One of 98lite:
http://www.litepc.com/
options replaces Windows 98 SE EXPLORER.EXE with older Windows 95 version.
In such case 98SE2ME options 1, 2 + 3 fail to install.
FIX:
MUST perform all steps below in this exact order:
1. Backup to a safe location [%windir% = usually C:\WINDOWS]:
%windir%\EXPLORER.EXE
%windir%\SYSTEM\COMDLG32.DLL
%windir%\SYSTEM\SHELL32.DLL
BEFORE installing 98lite or 98SE2ME.
2. Install 98lite and switch to Windows 95 EXPLORER.EXE.
3. Create a new directory called %windir%\EXPLOR95 [example] and then copy
%windir%\EXPLORER.EXE + %windir%\SYSTEM\SHELL32.DLL into %windir%\EXPLOR95 .
4. Run 98lite and switch to Windows 98 SE EXPLORER.EXE.
5. Install 98SE2ME.
6. Copy %windir%\SYSTEM\COMDLG32.DLL into %windir%\EXPLOR95 and then open
%windir%\EXPLOR95\COMDLG32.DLL into a hex editor [for example XVI32]:
http://www.mdgx.com/toy.htm#HEX
and replace all SHELL32.DLL strings with SHELL31.DLL (2 instances).
7. Reboot into native/true/real/pure MS-DOS mode:
A. by holding down Shift + F5 at the same time during BIOS boot POST (Power On
Self Test) sequence.
B. OR by scrolling down using the down arrow to the "Command prompt only"
option and then pressing Enter from the Windows 98 Startup Menu:
http://www.mdgx.com/msdos.htm#MEN
C. OR from a Windows 98 SE Emergency/Bootup/Startup floppy/CD/DVD/USB/external
disc/stick/tape.
8. Run these commands from the C:\ prompt:
ATTRIB -H -R -S %winbootdir%\EXPLOR95\*.*
ATTRIB -H -R -S %winbootdir%\EXPLORER.EXE
ATTRIB -H -R -S %winbootdir%\SYSTEM\COMDLG32.DLL

What about adding Resource Meter

heres what i was think'n if u decide to change the banner
Make the banner black, fadin out towards the top

get rid of the whole Windows 98 Second Edition stuff
after all we r using Killer Replacements.

Please see the complete list of files installed by 98SE2ME:
http://www.mdgx.com/98-5.htm#FME
The complete list also in TIPS98.TXT, part of W95-11D.EXE:
http://www.mdgx.com/95.htm
This info is also linked from READ1ST.TXT:
http://www.mdgx.com/9s2m/READ1ST.TXT
in the "FAQ" section, I believe.
These are the rsrcmtr files:
%windir%\RSRCMTR.EXE
%windir%\SYSTEM\RSRC16.DLL
%windir%\SYSTEM\RSRC32.DLL
CDPLAYER.EXE from WinME is just a "stub", only starts WMPLAYER.EXE (WMP).
But the same file name from Win98 SE is the actual CD player application.
That's why I didn't replace it.
FYI [if that's the 1 you were referring to]:
Deluxe CD Player [DELUXECD.EXE] is included only with MS Plus! 98 and Win2000 setup CD.
The 1 from Plus! 98 works with NTx OSes but the 1 from Win2000 doesn't work with 9x OSes.
I'll see what I can do about the explorer banner.
I'll post here a new edition of 98SE2ME when ready.

So let's see what you guys think of a custom 98SE2ME explorer banner.
Specs:
- BMP format, either RGB or RLE [compressed], doesn't matter.
- 16 colors [4-bit]. I could probably "scrunch" a 256 colors [8-bit] BMP, but may or may not display properly [haven't tried anything else besides 16 colors].
- file size must be minimum 1500 bytes, max 8000 bytes [preferably ~ 3000 bytes].
- BMP width x height must be 21 x 233 pixels [original pic size]. Height can be more or less that, up to max 300 pixels. Width should be 21 pixels, but can go down to 18 or up to max 25.
- writing has to vertical facing the left side of the screen.
- single color background acceptable, but gradient of multiple colors better.
Attached here:
the original BMP banner from explorer.exe in Win98 SE, the 1 from Gape's SP2 and the 1 I'm using.
All 3 are in GIF format.
Download ZIP + then use an unZIPper to extract files:

Please show off your drawing talent, and post here your own creations.
Thanks.
Just to note that TClock* might be an easier way to mess around/test this rather than reshacking, since it skins the start button and banner already.
Upnp does work on 98SE.
I haven't witness any bugs or errors.

The Zipfolder description confused me.
I regularly install the latest Winzip version first on a new 98SE installation. I use it for unzipping all the motherboard drivers and such. Eventually I install the Microsoft 98Plus! cd with Zipfolders being the only utility from it that I install, the rest just being the screensavers and themes stuff.
After installing the Zipfolder security update, I just run Winzip and when it asks to restore zip files to open with Winzip I say yes. Thereafter, Winzip works normally with zip files. The zip icons appear with the Winzip icon.
So, Zipfolders are available to use if I want to, but I use Winzip as the default normal operation.
How come you say that I must remove the zipfolder's dll if I want to use Winzip? I haven't noticed this.
On another change.
What if I like what Gape's pack installs as the StartMenu banner? I like the Windows 98 Second Edition there, not the Killer Replacements thing. I use Option 2 in 98SE2ME.
Can you possibly make this change optional?

Great Update 
I like to report a small bug.
Whenever I update my 98SE2ME i always have to re-install Maximum-Decim Native USB Drivers.
Is it a way to fix this so i don't always have to re-install 1 after the other.I think the WinME files
overide some of the Maximum-Decim Native USB Drivers.
Thanks

IMHO:
98SE2ME installs [options 1, 2 + 8] similar USB support from WinME, and everything should work ok, without having to install NUSB.
I recommend to install NUSB [if already installed 98SE2ME options 1, 2 or 8] only if your USB device(s) do not work properly.

Can't think of much to pad this post with. The GUI change makes more sense this way as we can choose.
It still is the patched Explorer file though, right? The one that Gape's pack installs? I'm assuming it is, but just with the additional option available to toggle the StartMenu GUI.

After installing the Zipfolder security update, I just run Winzip and when it asks to restore zip files to open with Winzip I say yes. Thereafter, Winzip works normally with zip files. The zip icons appear with the Winzip icon.
Does it overwrite later versions of DZip32.dll/DUnZip32.dll? I'm using version 4.00.04 11/30/01. Not sure where I got them. Maybe they came with WinRAR. The 98SEtoME version is 3.00.18 7/3/02.

Make the banner black, fadin out towards the top
98SE2ME in Dark gold letters & Killer Replacements in Red letters with the

In this curent release I'm afraid the D*ZIP.DLL files are overwritten. But I'll update 98SE2ME to check for newer versions first, and if 4.xx, 5.xx or newer versions are found, they won't be replaced anymore.
Yes, D*ZIP dlls come from DynaZip [shareware].
I guess MS licensed some earlier versions [3.00.07, 3.00.08 etc] for use with ZIPDLDR.DLL [all Win9x/ME versions].
ZIPFLDR from WinXP does not need [as far as I know] the D*ZIP dlls.
But there are some older apps/tools/etc that install those 2 DLLs.
Win95/95B OSR2.0/95C OSR2.5 setup CDs install DUNZIPNT.DLL 2.00.19.
Older AOL clients [6.0/7.0/8.0 ?] install some of those DLLs [older versions] too.
I have latest versions [as of April 25 2005]:
DUNZIP32.DLL 5.00.07
DZIP32.DLL 5.00.07
If anyone wants them, please e-mail me [click the blue E-mail link]:
http://www.mdgx.com/form.htm
I have not tested latest versions [5.xx] with ZIPFLDR.DLL 5.50.4921.1000 [the 1 installed by 98SE2ME, from WinME Q329048 hotfix].

Many thanks for your time and concern.Unfortunately, as I said in this post:
http://www.msfn.org/board/?s=&showtopic=46...ndpost&p=505627
this banner must be
QUOTE
BMP width x height must be 21 x 233 pixels [original pic size]. Height can be more or less that, up to max 300 pixels. Width should be 21 pixels, but can go down to 18 or up to max 25.
So theoretically banner size must be 21 x 233, otherwise cannot be used. This applies after the banner is in vertical position [width becomes height and vice versa].
Example:
This banner is 21 x 323 pixels 16 colors [4-bit].
This is how your banner looks like after shrinking it to size [21 x 78] and flipping it vertically:

Thanks again.
you act like theres no hope left in the world
There is always hope, even if you don't see it right away, don't allow appearances [or 1st impressions] to fool you.
Thanks a lot for your work.
I'll consider your banner.
But I'm waiting for more than 1 entry to decide which one looks better, and so far I have nothing else to compare yours against.
Best wishes.

I thought I'd chip in regarding a new banner for 98SE2ME.
Someone mentioned that they'd like to see gold lettering (maybe PROBLEMCHYLD?). I thought that would be a giggle, so I tried.
I've attached the result with this post.
This is only a quick job just so that any who is interested can get ideas. If anyone likes the idea, I'll do my best to produce something better, working within the constraints. I'm sure that, with attention, a better job can be made.
The font incidently is Franklin Gothic Demi.

D*ZIP DLLs v5.xx are from current edition of DynaZip tool [shareware] from the DynaZip web site.
I guess they removed support for M$ ZIP Folders.
I think we'll stick with v3.xx in 98SE2ME.
And actually this doesn't matter, because if 98SE2ME detects newer versions, it does not copy the 3.xx ones to %windir%\system .
Thanks.
Here are 3 more variations on the 'gold' theme for a Start menu banner. I've saved these at larger sizes, so boot screens/desktops are a possibility.
Sorry everyone - I promise that this is the last time I pursue this 'gold logo' stuff.
How about adjusting the existing logo to read "98SE2ME Killer Replacements", using the same font (various weights of Franklin Gothic) so that we keep the original style? Maybe I'll attach efforts in that direction, when I have a bit more time. How exciting is that?
PS - these files have 16 colours each, and all have the same dimensions: 21 x 233 pixels (in line with the specs that MDGx gave).

Q329048 [WinME zipfldr.dll hotfix] is not a Win98 SE hotfix/update, therefore will not be detected by WU as an installed update, no matter what you do.I get the Q329048 update at the WU site as if the files doesn't register correctly

The similar update Q329048 for MS Plus! 98 that shows up on the WU list requires to have MS Plus! 98 already installed, otherwise Q329048 from WU can't install.
To my knowledge the registry fix to force zipfldr.dll to install without Plus! 98 only allows zipfldr.dll hotfix to install, but has nothing to do with how WU detects it.
Therefore I don't think there is a fix for this.
And this should not break your setup, because even if WU tries to install [in the background] Q329048 for Plus! 98, it doesn't matter, because you already have the newer 1 from WinME, which should not be replaced.
I have removed TELNET.EXE from 98SE2ME because newer 1 is installed by Win98 SE MS99-033 security fix:

Thanks for your suggestions.
I will add clipbook.exe in the near future.
I won't remove clipbrd.exe because has different functionality than clipbook.exe, and I bet there are some people who like to use it.
But I'll also add clipsrv.exe , and eventually their help files [CHM, HLP].
I tried to run irmon.exe from WinME [even if I don't have any IR devices on my PC], and I got this error:
"the irmon.exe file is linked to missing export shell32.dll:SHGetFolderPathW"
which is probably present only in WinME shell32.dll.
I'll consider adding irmon.exe only to option 3 [which installs shell32.dll].
I need to do some testing 1st, of course.

That means [from what you say] you made MM work only after you installed KUP.
That means [deducting from what you said] MM cannot work properly without KUP, therefore unfortunately I can't add it into 98SE2ME.

Now with the KERNEL UPDATE PROJECT I am able to use such functions.
What do you think about addin a option X for the 98SE2ME/KUP users
option X(xtras) would add components that require shell32.dll:SHGetFolderPathW/A
Like you said in your Readme
Option 3 may cause instability.Now I've been usin KUP since the beginin and haven't
any problems that option 3 might cause.
Please consider my suggestion

All Wmi files from WinME are newer than Win98SE
WinMe Version 1.50.1164.0
Win98SE Version 1.50.1085.0001
Its best to install 98SE files 1st then all patches then WinMe files becuz 98SE install files WinMe doesn't.
REGSVR32.EXE from 98SE2ME does not install in my system directory.I have the original version.
Also none of the Dos tools you replace are no where on my hard drive after deletion of the 98SE2ME folder.CHOICE.COM, FIND.EXE, MEM.EXE, MOVE.EXE,START.EXE
XCOPY32.EXE ATTRIB.EXE, IMGVIEW, XCLONE.EXE
I have ALL original versions.
I have been checking files 1x1
which is newer than win98se files
