First off the jump from 98 to Vista will be huge. Most items are located in totally different spots, so don't panic when you can't find something right away :)

As for must have downloads, make sure to run windows update and it will snag all the files you need.

If you have any questions feel free to ask here as we are always ready to help :)

Vista is about as far removed from Windows 98 as you can get. Stay calm and use the "Help" features to get you around. There are a ton of things that you've never seen before but after you get accustom to Vista, you'll never go back. :thumbsup:

FYI... getting accustom to Vista may take a few to many months. :D

You could go to Linux for the same amount of effort.
