Win98SE disc
I ended up needing to use an old PC with Win 98SE and need the original OS
disc to configure for internet use. Of course, that disc is long gone. Anyone know how to get an original Win 98SE OS CD for this purpose?? Thanks! |

Win98SE disc
Borrow one and copy it or buy one on EBay. Best thing to do when you get
hold of one is to copy the WIN98 folder to your hard drive, then point any dialogues that want the files to that folder. You sure the files aren't already on the machine? Use Find to search for WIN98*.CAB files. If you find a bunch, that's your installation files folder. -- Gary S. Terhune MS-MVP Shell/User www.grystmill.com "solstice63" wrote in message ...

Win98SE disc
I also need a copy and didn't see one on ebay when I checked this morning.
If you know where I can buy one pls share the info. I can't even get my laptop to boot because the OS is gone. Called HP and they told me to buy Win 98 SE and reload but I can't even find the disc "Gary S. Terhune" wrote: Borrow one and copy it or buy one on EBay.
