CompTIA A+ Software – 9/26/2006

Tuesday, September 26, 2006 Ben Leave a comment

Today we talked about Windows 98, and the differences between Win98 and Win95.  While I was talking about that, we tried installing Windows 98 and had much better luck this time!  However, we got to a point to where we were told the PCI controller was incompatible with Windows 98.  That’s right.  Our computers are too new to be installing Windows 98.  Hopefully we’ll have better luck with Windows Me next week.

Homework:

  • No Homework!
  • Study for your Hardware Test!
