Is there any way to get the game to run under windows 98?

 

Installing java5, RS says the java isn't installed.. Does the game no longer support java5?

According to Wikipedia, the latest version of Java that works on 98 is Java 6 Update 7. You could try installing that if you can find it on a trusted site.

 

Other than that, you're probably out of luck.

Uninstall windows 98. Install a light weight version of Ubuntu/Mint.

Or if you know your way around linux, slackware.

Get java on it.

Then play runescape.

 

Though you'll probably lagg like holy balls.

So another suggestion.

This is the latest Win98 Java download I can find:

Do you already have this? If so, I don't really know what to suggest buddy. If not, give it a try and let me know.

Indeed, I tried that. It did not work, however. I am saddened

I asked for advice on how to run it under 98. Not a flavor of linux. Thanks

Thanks for the straight answer. I guess I can't use the laptop running 98 for anything other than scanning anymore

Thanks :)
