HOT TAKE: GTA Online is poisoning the franchise

GTA has always been a single player, story rich game. The introduction of online has tainted the purity of the franchise. That’s why we don’t get DLCs because they’re too busy working on online. GTA VI is better off without an online mode.

I have a 20GB HDD but it’s only showing 10GB

I did a fresh install of Windows 98 SE using a 20 GB Quantum Fireball IDE hard drive. I had Windows 98 format the drive during install to FAT 32. When the installation was complete, I went to My Computer and it’s only showing half of the drive. About 10 GB. How do I recover the other half? I ran Fdisk on it and it’s showing the 20 GB drive and I also ran Norton Ghost Partition Magic and it’s also showing 20 GB. As well as in BIOS. Scan disk had no errors and it’s running normally in the performance tab. What’s going on here?

New additions to the family

A couple of days ago I had a chance of rescuing these two wonderful brothers. My best friend that lives three hours away had a neighbor with a litter of kittens, and the neighbor was threatening to drown them. 🤬 I wish I could’ve saved all of them, but I only have room for two since I already have two grown cats and a dog.

Meet Carlos (shorthair) and Fuego (longhair)! They both have the kitty cold and nasty eye infections when my friend brought them down to me. I immediately brought them to the vet and they gave me medicine for them. It’s been three days now and they are so much happier! At first, they were very shy, barely wanted to get out of the cage and now they are wrestling and running around and eating so so much.

Showing off my children

These are my two babies. Roscoe (grey tabby/white) and Mya (grey tabby). They are 8 years old and brother and sister. Unfortunately, ever since they got fixed 7 years ago, they don’t like each other. Not sure why but either way, I love them so much!

Roscoe is an outdoor lover but when he’s inside, he’s a cuddle bug. And Mya is mostly indoors and stuck on me like Velcro.

Needing Help Flashing the BIOS in DOS

I currently have an issue with my Socket 370 ASUS CUEP2 – M micro ATX motherboard where I’m getting error messages every time I try to boot with a PIII copper mine CPU. I’m at the point where I need to flash bios to update it. I have a FLASH utility on a floppy and the new bios update on another floppy.

I have it booted from a Windows 98 boot desk using CDR support and I’m trying to get the flash utility to run from the floppy disk so I can back up the current bios and I am stuck at the screen and I don’t know what else to do. I have zero experience using MS–DOS.

Computer specs:
CPU – PIII 1GHz 256/133
RAM – 256 MHz 133
GPU – ATI 9000 series
OS – Windows 98SE

Setting up for Internet

I know this probably gets asked a million times but I’m looking to set up my Inspiron 530 to use on the internet for light use. (yes, I am aware of certain risks. I’m smart enough not to go on sites that need my personal info)

What are all the programs I would need to keep it safe and work without issue? Legacy Update, a web browser, antivirus, etc.

Frozen at “Add New Hardware Wizard”

Please help. I installed a fresh new install of Windows 98SE (Winworld ISO) and I got to the part where it boots up on the Hard Drive and it’s searching for the drivers to install. The very first one is the Plug and Play Monitor and my mouse and keyboard has zero input. It’s like it’s frozen. If I go to bios, they work fine. If I boot up in Safe Mode, it works fine without issue. I have used the ISO on dozens of pcs. This is the first time I’ve ever had this issue.

I’ve tried unplugging everything except the essentials (motherboard/HDD) and disabled the parallel and serial ports. I tried using a different monitor, still nothing. I loaded the bios in default also. Nothing seems to work. I’m at a loss here.

Specs:
Motherboard- ASUS CUEP2-M
CPU- Intel Pentium III 1GHz 133FSB
RAM- 256MB SDR
GPU- ATI Radeon 9000
Soundblaster Live! SB0100
20GB HDD

Looking for a PSU for a Windows 98 build

My power supply went out on my Proteva rig. I bought a Antec Earthwatts EA-500D on eBay and it was sadly DOA. From this experience, I’m not sure if I want to buy another used PSU on eBay and hope and pray it works. So, I’m looking for new ATX power supply with 20 pin, floppy, and Molex connections if possible. What do y’all recommend?

Specs:
CPU: Intel Pentium III 1GHZ 133MHz
RAM: 256 MB
Motherboard: ASUS Socket 370 CUEP2-M
GPU: ATI Radeon 9000
OS: Windows 98SE

Let me know what you think! I’ve always loved these growing up. Some I’ve seen in person, some I haven’t yet

My dad passed in August 2025. I inherited his daily driver 78 F-150 Custom. It’s not perfect. The radio doesn’t work and the factory A/C is long dead but I’m still keeping it alive

Anyone else ordered a computer at Staples from a company called Proteva back in the day?
