Changes[edit | edit source]

  • Changed the Active Channel panel.
  • The Windows 98 Welcome program now displays the splash screen as seen in the RTM. Also, unlike other Windows 98 builds, the Welcome program's content is put on a black background prior to playing the startup sound. The black background would be removed in build 1650.
  • Tada and notify sounds have been changed to the ones heard in the released product.
  • Added a Disk Cleanup program link to the start menu.
  • ODBC (32-bit) settings are finalized.
  • Readded the "Microsoft" string to the Computer section of System Properties for the second time after the initial removal in build 1619.

Bugs[edit | edit source]

To avoid a BSOD during hardware setup, ACPI and APM must be turned off.
