Windows 98SE Problem DESPERATE

Hello and thank you for taking time to read this.



I'll be as brief as possible. I was given a Dell Inspiration 3500 as
follows:

MODEL#: TS30t AND IS EQUIPED WITH: 5MB Hard Disk; 1.44MB Floppy Disk; does
not have a cd rom device; Power Supply Input; Line In - Microphone -
Headset Jacks; Xircomm 56K Internal Modem; 1 USB port; 1 Parralell Port; 1
Serial port; 1 External monitor Port; 1 Unknown port about 4.5 " long; 1
External Mouse / Keyboard Attachment Port.

AGAIN (FOR CLARIFICATION OF MY PROBLEM) THE LAPTOP HAS NO CD ROM DEVICE.



The Problem

The unit did at one time have Windows 98SE installed. I don't have the
operating system disks to re-install the operating system to the drive.



I was given this for an upcoming hospital stay for heart surgery. I want to
have a computer to make recuperation go a bit faster. I know for me, time
really does fly when on the computer whatever you're doing (unless it may be
work related- then just the opposite!.



If anyone has any idea for me to solve this problem so that I can get it up
and running? I know it won't be the greatest, but being retired and
disabled, I am happy with whatever God sends my way.



Sincerely,
