windows 98 second edition can't connect to internet

Expand Post »
Hi all, I have the same problem as robert 1023 had. My pc is custom built it has a amd duron 700mhz processor. I have two hard disks one ( let's call this hd-0) has windows vista with 4 days left to activate and have no product key, so that one's a lame duck. The other drive(let's call this hd-1) I installed windows 98se. this one won't connect to the internet. I downloaded the winstockfix to a disk useing hd-0. when I diconnect the cable from 0 and connect to 1 the CD won't read any files on the CD, it shows up as blank. can anyone please help?
