Patch reliability is unclear. Unless you have an immediate, pressing need to install a specific patch, don't do it. |
My desktop has Win 98. It works just fine. I have not downloaded any updates except for security updates that relate to me. I’m not willing to spend the time it takes to download everything from the MS site.
I recently bought a laptop with Win 98 SE.
Is it worthwhile to upgrade my desktop to SE? If the answer is “yes” is there anything special I need to know about the installation before I begin? I’d hate to get into it and then be surprised by something.
