Best Answer

It depends on the manufacturer of your computer, i.e. I have a Dell all of the drivers for my system are in the folder C:\ Dell\ this would not be the case obviously for a Sony or Toshiba etc but I think you can get the idea. You may have to show hidden files and folders to see the folder from your specific manufacturer. Originally answered by PureFlo2010

Can you install windows 98 on a hard drive and transfer this hard drive to another computer and run Windows 98 as well as if it had been installed directly on this computer?

If both computers are the exact same model you can do it without any problem. If the computer that you transfer the hard drive to is different it may still work, but when you boot the computer Windows98 wil look for drivers for the different chipset In the process of looking for the correct driver Win98 may ask you to insert the Win98 install disk. The problem is the CD drive will not be recognized yet because usually the ide and pci chipset drivers have to be loaded first ,but they have to be loaded from the CD disk. Ah a real dilema! The solution: make a windows startup disk and replace the msdos.sys file and io.sys file on floppy with the msdos.sys and io.sys files from the win 98 hard drive. Transfer drive , and boot to the floppy on new machine. It will load the dos cdrom drivers and also boot to Win98. The cdrom will show up in Win98 and you can install drivers for new hardware from the CD. After all the drivers are fund it should work o.k.

What part of the computer sends data to CPU?

In the broadest sense, the motherboard sends data to the CPU. To be more specific, it would be the chipset, and particularly the northbridge.To follow the pathway, it works something like this. The user loads a program which is on the hard drive. The hard drive sends data to the hard drive bus controller which is connected to the southbridge of the chipset. Then that goes to the northbridge into memory and back, and from the northbridge to the CPU. Of course, some modern computers use a single chipset bridge, and in that case, the other components are inside the CPU.

What is a computer hardware subsystem?

Thehardware subsystemis the chipset.The chipset is basically what interconnects and controls the pathways between the processor, RAM, video, and other devices like the hard drive and network card.If acomputer processor, RAM, andvideo controllerwere major cities, then the hardware subsystem (chipset) would be the roads and traffic lights (the chipset controls traffic flow) that connect them together. Other things, like the hard drive, DVD drive, and USB would be like the suburbs because they have slower, indirect access to the processor, ram and video controller.
