I installed Windows 98 and Windows XP to a partition, the system is stable, the use has been normal.Windows XP to use more usually, the ravages of the recent Blaster, and I use the Internet Windows 98, stumbled into the Windows 98, use Outlook Express, when, suggesting no MSOE.DLL.Windows 98 comes quickly to the program are tried, really found the problem: Click the "Start → All Programs → Accessories → System Tools → System Information" when prompted to find MFC42U.DLL.Although you can use Foxmail instead of Outlook Express, "System Information" is not used much, but the system had problems, they want to solve.
Analysis of the reasons: After installing Windows 98 in the same partition to install Windows XP, although the click "Advanced Options" Select the new path, the coverage will not cause system files, but Windows comes with two different versions of the applications are installedIn the "Program Files" folder, so Windows XP will put the original "Program Files" folder and replace the files the same name, resulting in the phenomenon mentioned in the beginning of this article.
Solution: find the reasons and solve them is simple.Outlook Express problem easy to handle, as long as the Windows 98 look IE6.0 SP1 installed on the line, anyway, always to the Internet more secure upgrade to IE6.0, so that Outlook Express will be upgraded to version 6.0.A few will appear during installation warning, do not ignore it, simply click "OK" button.
In the "Start" menu, right-click "System Information" and select "Properties → Shortcut", you'll see it points to "C: Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft Shared MSINFOMsinfo32.exe" this document.Since Windows 98 was Windows XP in Msinfo32.exe documents covering the same name, which then extracts a good!In Windows 98, click the "Start → Run", type "sfc" Open "System File Checker", select "Extract one file from installation disk", enter the file name "Msinfo32.exe" to extract the file, select the Windows 98 installationdisk position, pay attention to save the file to another directory, file extraction is successful, first it was renamed Msinfo3298.exe, and move it to C: Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedMSINFO below.Now re-enter the interface as shown, the "target" point to change the "C: Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft Shared MSINFOMsinfo3298.exe" on it.
Add a point: the dual system is installed to a partition and a new discovery, I installed Windows 98, Photoshop 6.0, on Windows XP, you can create a shortcut directly to normal use, and also can input Chinese characters no problemThis is the C: Program FilesCommon Files directory public's sake.It seems there are benefits and disadvantages are also ah, so the dual system is installed to a partition is still worth a try.
