Windows Installation Notes:Installing a vintage Windows OS such as Windows 98 can be a difficult and time intensive process. Driver support is mostly nonexistent for Windows 98, therefore finding and installing the correct drivers for the internal peripherals is a challenge! This work has been completed for you, and the hard to find drivers will be included for future installs. Note:We turn off Sleep/Suspend features on Windows 98 systems due to unreliable early power management sleep/wake handling. An updated custom USB stack driver is installed for better compatibility on newer USB devices.
