Friends:

Hello! Recently I got the urge to slim down my Windows 98 Second Edition a bit, that is, to strip down Windows 98 Second Edition.

Goal: make Win98 as small as possible, while keeping some common functions, such as being able to run standard Win applications, access the Internet, sound, etc. I’m not asking to make it into a boot floppy, because that’s impossible. What I mean is, just create a new directory on the existing C: drive, copy the necessary required files, and make a stripped-down Win98.

Problem: I know some other methods, but I’m not clear on the file list for slimming down Windows 98 Second Edition, so I’m asking you all for advice here. Thanks!

Stripping down Win98—down to how many MB?

Let’s limit it by function, that is, keep basic network, sound, and graphics support. As for how many MB, just strip it down to the minimum according to those retained functions I mentioned above.

If it’s more than 60MB, then forget it, because there’s already a ready-made one.

40 to 50 MB, is that okay? Can you give a file list?

Let me show you what I made. This is a 54MB WIN98SE. Hope to see you make one even smaller.

http://phpcfm.myrice.com/ Take a look at this. Personally I think it’s pretty good, but I just couldn’t get virtual dial-up installed properly, so I can’t get online.

This is my first time stripping down a system. How do you slim down the registry?

Go to pure DOS
regedit /e a.reg
regedit /c a.reg
del a.reg
Somehow somewhere I've got to choose.
No matter if it is win or lose.

1. Export
2. Import
3. Delete

Looks like your work will be a long wait......

Heartbroken or what? How am I supposed to “click to view this file”?

The forum changed its address, get it? And you didn’t even look at the posting time.
