try www.bootdisk.com

You can also make a bootable win98 floppy from the win98 CD if you have a
computer that will read the CD.

Run the following file on the CD
tools/mtsutil/fat32ebd

Email support can be a dangerous proposition. When a response is posted in
the newsgroup, a lot of people are going to review it and make sure that the
answer is correct or at least that it will not do any harm to your PC. When
you get an email, no one can review it to ensure it has good information.
Also, when you use a valid email address in a public newsgroup like this,
you may get tons of spam and emails with a virus attached.

Boot disk: Same as Jon said
