Thanks, George. I'm sure you're right - but of course I was trying to
avoid sighted help . . ..
Any idea which virus checkers still support SE?

Hi Carol,
In my experience, and at this stage, it is just about as
easy to start again from scratch.
By the time you have messed about in the Registry and all sorts, and
driven yourself mad, you will have reformatted anyway.
Windows 98SE support - gone, aside from pure security maintenance
patches. However, I suspect it will be a while before it dies
completely - just like DOS.
George.

Subject: [access-uk] SYSTEM RESTORED TO FACTORY SETTINGS -
AND NOW
Hi All,
I'm working on a machine which I've just reformatted and
used original disks to put on all software for the computer when it left
the factory.
In order to help the person who is purchasing this, I
continued the installation of 98SE and entered an owner's
name in the required field.
(This had to be done to proceed with the remainder of the
fresh
install.)
Now it's possible that the original buyer won't have the machine after
all and I'll need either to repeat the above process or find a shortcut
way of changing the owner details. Is it just a case of tweaking the
Registry and changing one name for another, or are there deep settings
which need to be "got at" and are best done with another new install?
If you can help with this, I'd be most grateful.
Oh, in addition, when does support end for Windows SE from Microsoft and
which of the leading providers of virus scanning software (in addition
to AVG) have already stopped supporting .SE?
