| | Windows 98 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Windows 98 was succeeded by Windows Me when a "consumer" version of Windows 2000 was abandoned (which was code-named Windows Neptune); Windows Me was in turn succeeded by Windows XP Home Edition. | | | Windows 98 "First Edition" is designated by the internal version numbers 4.10.1998 or 4.10.1998A if it has been updated with the Security CD from Microsoft. | | | The system requirements of Windows 98 Second Edition are: a 66 MHz processor, 24 MB RAM and at least 210 MB of free hard disk space. |

| | Microsoft Windows - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Microsoft Windows is a series of popular proprietary operating environments and operating systems created by Microsoft for use on personal computers and servers. | | | Finally, Windows implemented an elaborate, segment-based, software virtual memory scheme which allowed it to run applications larger than available memory: code segments and resources were swapped in and thrown away when memory became scarce, and data segments moved in memory when a given application had relinquished processor control, typically waiting for user input. | | | Windows has produced a significant change in the way people interact with computers; it is possible to perform most common tasks, some quite complex, with very little computer knowledge. |

| | Sysinternals Freeware - NTFS for Windows 98 |
| | NTFS for Windows 98 wraps the Windows NT/2000/XP NTFS driver in a run-time environment that simulates the Windows NT environment the NTFS driver is written to use. | | | NTFS for Windows 98 is a NTFS file system driver for Windows 95 and Windows 98. | | | Because the Windows 95/98 environment is different than that of Windows NT/2000/XP, the level of NTFS support that NTFS for Windows 98 provides is not equivalent to that provided on Windows NT/2000/XP. |
