Windows 98, Windows 98se (Second Edition), Windows ME (Millennium).
 
Microsoft has officially retired support for the above Windows products since
they are outdated and can expose customers to security risks.  Although the
"Voyetra Turtle Beach" product package may list these old versions of Windows
as Supported platforms, Turtle Beach does not support them anymore.
We apologize for any inconvenience that may result.

End of support for Windows 98 and Windows Me:
Published: January 6, 2006 | Updated: February 16, 2006

July 11, 2006 will bring a close to Extended Support for Windows 98, Windows
98 Second Edition, and Windows Me as part of the Microsoft Lifecycle Policy.
Microsoft will retire public and technical support, including security
updates, by this date.

Existing support documents and content, however, will continue to be available
through the Microsoft Support Product Solution Center Web site. This Web site
will continue to host a wealth of previous How-to, Troubleshooting, and
Configuration content for anyone who may need self-service.

Microsoft is retiring support for these products because they are outdated and
can expose customers to security risks. We recommend that customers who are
still running Windows 98 or Windows Me upgrade to a newer, more secure
Microsoft operating system, such as Windows XP, as soon as possible.

Customers who upgrade to Windows XP report:
Improved security, richer functionality, and increased productivity. 
VTB cannot offer support for these old Windows platforms that even Microsoft
no longer supports.


All files and documentation are offered on an *AS IS* basis and you assume full responsibility for using them.
