Good morning all,

I'm in no way an expert on PC's, but my take on this thread
is that 98 was not listed as a supported OS on this Vectra
because it didn't exist when the PC was manufactured.
The comment about the system only being able to use Win95
( imo...ymmv ) is that for some reason the system wouldn't
support NT.  I'm not sure why this would be the case, but
I would expect that any PC running 95 should be able to run
98, assuming that you have enough disk/ram/mhz to support
the OS.

Now where is that darn 'any' key, anyway...;-)
