problem installing win98 SE

Hi,
I downloaded window98 SE from MSDN subscription and I'm trying to install it on my newly formated hard drive from DOS, but with no success; When I type "setup"
or "win98\setup" or ..... I keep getting the error: "bad command" or
"This program cannot run in DOS mode"

I used the command "Dir" to make sure that I'm pointing to the right drive, and I can see all files that the CD contains including the setup file.

if I try to use the window98 CD (the one that originally was installed before formatting) everything goes ok and the installation process start.

is there anything specific about the version I downloaded from MSDN, that I cannot install it from DOS ???

thanks for help

You appear to have the Win98SE UPDATES CD that is designed to update
Win98 to Win98SE, this CD needs a windows installation currently on the
HDD to work
