No such thing. What happened to the installation files? If you have no
installation disk look in C:\Windows\Options\CABS folder for lots of CAB
files. If you have several dozen, then you have the installation files. Just
point anything that asks for them to that folder. If they're not there, use
Find to look for *.CAB files. Perhaps they're elsewhere. If you find them
and you need to reformat, you'll first have to copy the entire contents of
the folder to a CD or to another hard drive or partition.

Otherwise, Win98SE OEM CDs are pretty cheap (~$50) and can be found lots of
places. Look at EBay.
