made. Optimum ram for '98 is 128MB,
anything over that is overkill

I have 2, one an Asus and one a Gigabyte,
both have had a gig and more in it and only
NT has been able to access it. It could 
be as simple as just having to run a defrag though,
fat32 FS are know to fall to pieces with files 
like that.

(I havn't even seen my post and you already replied?)

wrong again. sorry, but you guys don't even bother going to the source.
there are instructions from Microsoft on configuring Windows 98 to run well
with very large amounts of RAM, greater than 1G. the actual practical limit
is 1.5G. none of you guys are doing it and none of the magazines you buy
know. they are just quoting articles from magazines that all in turn quote
from PC Magazine articles that use WinBench of various versions, none of
which has a working set of greater than about 200 megabytes. if you know
enough to understand this article, you will know enough to know that all
the magazines are wrong:
