Puck,
Actually Win 95 and 98 are very similar. If you are using Win95 now then it should not be a problem using Win98. It will not work in XP at all so do not try that.
However the QEG program is a DOS based program that means if you are using it with Win 95 then you are using the MS DOS shell to run the program.
If this is the case be sure to get all the set-up properties so you can set-it up the same way under Win 98.
If this is not the case then there may be some issues trying to use the QEG software with Windows . You may have to set up a dual boot method. (one for when you need the windows and one for just using QEG under MS DOS).
It would not work if you let the computer boot up into windows and then exited to MS DOS this method still has windows running in the background and will cause issues with the QEG program.
You would need to boot the system up as MS DOS because windows uses memory and function keys that the QEG program would require. In that case you might as well just format the drive to just use DOS unless windows is required for other software.
That particular system has a special control unit that has to use the QEG software to work.
On that age of computer you can still find add on Serial cards to expand the number of ports you have available. This however may not be necessary at this time.
