Which suggested solution is that?  There were 2 in that thread.

Anyway, Emacs developers need help to debug this, as none of us has
access to a Windows 9X machine anymore.  If you are willing to work
with us, I'm sure we will find the solution.

And no, we don't want to discontinue support for running Emacs on
Windows 9X, not yet anyway.

TIA
