Default Unable to register Win 98

Hi,

How do I register my Windows 98 if I have no Internet connection?

I did not recieve a postal registration form when I purchased it.

I tried using a computer at a net cafe (right now) but ended up registering
it instead in my name (and besides, I believe the software on this computer
is pirated.)

Anyway, so how do I register my Win 98 SE?

Thanks for reading.

Don't bother registering it.

You aren't on the Internet so you can't use Windows Update to obtain all of
the many updates.

Moreover, Microsoft's support for Win 98 ends 0n 30 June 2006.

You can find a registry hack - a file that makes an entry in the Registry
that tells Microsoft that its registered without that being the case.

But you don't even need that because you're not on the web with that PC.

But if you want it, enter: registration + hack + "windows 98" - as is, in
Google.
