Starting with version 1.01 of the SP, the OSR2 SP deletes older OSR2 SP QFECheck registry entries from previous versions of the OSR2 SP when installing over a previous version.

Version 1.04 is probably the last release of the 1.0x series of the SP

If you have any questions, comments, problems with the OSR2 SP, send me PM (personal message) or email.

Please read the beginning of this topic for the latest release of the OSR2 service pack.

Erpman, what's the difference between lite and full?

[awergh]

im gonna take a guess and say that directx might not be in it

that's just one of the addons not included in the lite edition of the SP [it has DirectX 8.0a]. another difference is the version of Windows Media Player included. The full version has WMP 6.4 while the lite version has WMP 6.0 (or is it WMP 5.2?) which does not depend on certain IE files.

also the full version installs Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.5 SP3; some third party apps depend on some of the files from MDAC

^Thanks!

[ESCOMMODORE64]

How to integrate it into cd anyway?

[ZileXa]

HUH? why not switch to 98SE? Any pc that runs 95 can run 98SE right? Or even an nLited XP SP3?

[BenoitRen]

Because Win98SE has IE integrated in its shell, making it unpleasant to work with for some (like me).

As for an nLited WinXP SP3, that thing will crawl on older computers.

Well, not actually. As I know Win98 SE requires 16 Mb RAM, and Win95 OSR requires 8 Mb (original, not OSR version required 4 Mb, but it was hard to install it, and it was extremely slow on such PCs, my friend tried to install it on 386 with 4 MB). And I have experience of running Win98 on 16 MB RAM. It is not so bad, but 16 MB memory turns the multitasking system to singletasking . I wanted to use Win95, but had a bad distributive, which refused to run. So, I had to install and use Win98.

But actually, you are quite right, Win98 has all the good sides of Win95 and does not have many of its bugs. I don't understand people, still using Win95 except for licensing issue or severe hardware limitation. In this case I don't think they need this update. But I know at least one man, using Windows 95 on not so old notebook just because he likes it.

As for nLited XP SP3, it has much bigger requirements than Win98.

M()zart, clearly you didn't read my post just above yours.

[medox]

Just what I was looking for!

Thanks & keep the updates/paches coming!

You are right, sorry. I've read your post, but forgot about it when was writing the answer.
But anyway, why not to use Win98 without IE and with Win95 shell? There is a 98lite app which do this. Or you may google Mindows and Nano98.

[BenoitRen]

Because using the Win95 shell with Win98 opens a whole other can of worms.
