Ever want to run a newer game or program on a windows 98 system.

well you can, I found the program called kernelex
http://kernelex.sourceforge.net/

Almost every app I tried works with it and a good bit of games do too!
Its kind of like windows capability mode but in reverse.
It works even better with all the windows 98 updates and the unofficial windows 98 SP3
If you ever get a missing file or .dll file error just installed the system file.

I have only found a few apps and games that do not work with it .
I hope this might help a person or two.

once I get my 3dfx system backup and going I'll post some screens of it in action.


edit:
You can find updates for win98 here.

Be certain to do a backup be for installing any updates.
