Hi
I am running win98 2nd ed and was looking to buy the ibm 46gb ide drive everyone is talking about, is anyone else running this with win98?, Does win98 handle such a big drive ok?
thanks

As long as your motherboard's BIOS supports it (or you get a UDMA-100 card to plug it into), you won't have any problems with that drive and Win98.

like Dave said as long as your bios supports that size you'll be fine
