Opera 10.54 on Windows 98 SE
Wendell wrote recently in microsoft.public.win98.apps:
After updating msimg32.dll on Windows 98 SE, Opera 10.54 appears to install and run without any problems. Without updating the DLL, Opera will still run, but gives an error message about the transparency feature. I always find it interesting when someone without much of a posting history posts to a dormant windows 98 newsgroup. I wonder what motivated them to do it. How exactly did they choose which group to post to. Why didn't they do a little more investigation to see what might be the best group to post to. So because this looks like some-what useful information, I'm adding a couple of much more active groups to the original distribution so that more people will see it. On the same system, Opera 10.60 will not run. So maybe v10.54 is the last to run on Win98. The msimg32.dll v5.00.1693.1 that comes with Win98 needs to be replaced with v5.00.2218.1 that comes with Windows ME. For details, see this thread: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic153757.html I don't use opera myself, as Firefox 2.0.0.20 works just fine as a web-browser for win-98, and netscape communicator 4.79 is a perfectly good usenet client. |
