98 Guy
The following was recently posted in the win-9x forum on MSFN.org. I
thought I'd re-post it here and see if any MVP's have anything to say
about it. I haven't verified this particular issue with HP myself.
-----------------------
Is microsoft forcing hardware producers to remove win9x drivers from
their webpages?
HP have just removed their win98-drivers and says thing like this
"HP’s licensing agreement with third-party providers granting use of
their components will expire."
and
"Microsoft has stopped providing and supporting certain files related
specifically to Windows 98 SE, and this change affects all technology
companies. HP, along with other technology companies, is no longer
able to use selected components in support of Windows 98SE, which has
an impact on our software strategy for Windows 98, Windows 98 SE, and
Windows Me."
on their webpage.
?
ps. have anyone made backups of all hp's drivers?
