This is like complaining you cannot use home
heating oil to fuel your car. XP and 98SE are
different operating systems. You can repair
a Win98SE system only with system files from
a Win98 CD or download: or if you post the
names of essential but missing files some kind
soul might send you copies.

Your problem is not clear. It makes no difference what operating system you
use to download the files. If you are downloading W98 files on an XP
machine, the W98 files will work once transferred to the W98 machine.
