I know the guy that runs this site very well, so I trust him as a source. Anyways its hosted on majorgeeks, they have quality content most of the time.

Anybody tried it?

yep...i`ve used ver 1.2 on a 98se installation...seems to work very well. there seems to be less need for constant rebooting because of the script included to help manage the swap file, upgraded windows installers are good, usb support...no driver clashes... it`s all good stuff. i haven`t checked out ver 1.5 but i will now..running all sorts of apps with no problems. quite a few people i know can`t afford xp and are using 98se. i`ve upgraded 3 or 4 win98se installations with this pack...they all love it. we did discuss this on another thread and i remember that begoodbebad and i think the hunter were going to check it (the servicepack) out.. i see on checking his site that the new version has 98lite chubby and lightweight support, updated aspi drivers and updates for visual basic and c ++ runtime libraries..looks very interesting and with the memory management tweak will certainly improve and stabilise a win98se installation

I just realized I've downloaded this pack before, but an older version. Never had a chance to try it, but I'm glad to hear its working for you.
