Tip: Updating Window 98 via Windows Update not working
If you don't know already, Microsoft ceased updating Windows 98 in July 2006. But you can still update you Windows 98 with the existing patch.
So, recently, I had to do a clean install on a computer. No trouble, I had "ghosted" it a few years back. I "un-ghost" the image and restarted the computer. A few minutes later, it was all loaded. I open Internet Explorer then went to Windows Update.
I was greeted by a message similar to this:
This webpage is designed for Microsoft Windows Operating
Systems. For Macintosh support please go to http://www.microsoft.com/mac.
Funny but I found a few hints here and there until I finally found my answer.
In my case, I had to close Internet Explorer. It seems that 2 instances was too much. Once closed, I went to it via the Start menu. It work!
It could be the same with Window ME.
