When you start Windows 98 by using the "/d:n" switch, for example, by
typing "win /d:n" (without quotation marks), Windows 98 may appear to
start in safe mode with network support, but you may not have network
support or connectivity. Note that you may experience this behavior even
though this switch worked correctly in Microsoft Windows 95.

This problem can occur because Windows 98 does not support the "/d:n"
switch, and does not support starting in safe mode with network support.

To work around this problem, do not try to start Windows 98 in safe mode
with network support by using the "/d:n" switch.
