Hey everybody,
Im new here... Ive got a few MJ's and they work great, but I just have one question.. Does anybody know if it is possible to run a MJ on a Windows 98 machine?
I know the website site officially says it only supports XP and Vista, but was curious if there was a driver for it anywhere.. or if any of you had figured out a way to get it to work on such a machine..
all replied are appreciated,

No Windows 98 support.just put xp on that machine
64meg of RAM or more will do.

Have you ever seen how slow XP runs on 64MB of RAM?
I wouldn't recommend running XP SP2 or 3 with less then 384MB. 512MB or more would be better.
To the OP: No, it won't work with Win 98 [or Atari or Amiga or C64 or Classic Mac, either
]. It doesn't even work on Windows 2000.

My dedicated MJ machine is a striped down HP 650mhz 64MB RAM XP sp3 machine.
Yes it runs slow but MJ runs very solid on this computer.
