I got an old computer that runs on Windows 98. I have the product key for
the disc, but do not have the disc itself, and I would like to change some
of
the settings in Windows, but I can't do that without the disc.

Post your intentions here and seek comment.
You can change practically all Windows settings
without use of the CD so long as
(1) You are sure your backup system files are
both up to date and malware-free
(2) You understand how to (back up beforehand
and) edit the Registry.
