Will this be ok whilst playing all the new games ?

I guess they'll run fine on win98... try it... if you have problems you can always get help with the reformat here because tbh it's a piece of proverbial piss as long as you make sure everything important is properly backed up and the back ups tested :p

Just one thing... don't be tempted to directly upgrade from 98 to XP/2k coz bad things will happen.... make sure you clean install if you do upgrade to 2k/xp.

I was using Windows 98SE fine up till last week when I finally upgraded to XP, you don't actually need the SE as most of the fixes are in the downloadable updates, AFAIK the only difference is ICS.

Agreed (ICS = Internet Connection Sharing).
