Whenever you need to automate a task you can easily use .CMD scripts that are text files containing DOS / Windows commands with some extra structural components (like if, for etc.). Internet is full of examples.

Old computers don’t see large drives clearly
When inserting a 40 GB or larger drive into a computer running windows 98, the system will only see correctly the files that are written in the first 32 GB, the rest appear as somenthing very hard to decypher. In order to avoid this, two partitions (or more) of maximum 31 GB are required insead of one larger 32 GB partition.

Windows 98 Network Cards Conflict
Today I had to go to a place in order to configure a computer to have access to the internet. And the very (Microsoft type of) weird thing that kept on happening was that I got a message like “Your network card conflicts with another computer that has the IP address 192.168.0.39″. The weird thing is that whatever IP I configured the TCP/IP protocol to use, I got the same thing (with other address of course). I’ll never understand these things.
