Hello All,

I am trying to find out if there is a Newsgroup for Win98. I know that
MS does not support it anymore but, is there a newsgroup about it? What
I really need to know is what CAB file has the drivers in it. I'm
trying to help a friend who does not want XP.

Thanks,

Rick

Lots of them, listing at link.

Win98 doesn't come with a lot of drivers.

What newsgroups are available to you is a function of what newsserver you
look for them on. I can't guarantee you what newsgroups the server you use
carries. But I can tell you that the Windows 98 newsgrouops can be found on
the Microsoft newsserver, news.microsoft.com.
