I wonted to upgrade my win 95, so my sis gave me her full
version of 98. It say's, I already have an operating
system on it. Do I just delete my 95 and then put in my 98
cd? Or Is that a no no?I have a lot of missing ..dll files
and error messages all the time.

if you want to do a clean install
just format the drive and go ahead & install win98

just back up any data you need to keep

>ok this is how it works you cant install the full verdion

of of win98 over wi95 you have to use the win98 upgrade
once the upgrade is in and working then you can install
the full version of wi98 but win 98 upgrade over wi95 and
if you decide to remove wi95 and try to install the full
version of windows98 yor gonna run into problems big ones
you see in order for you to put a operating sytem on you
pc on has to be there currently on the pc like if you want
to load wi98 over 95 wi95 has to be there becase the
operating system you choose uses the files from the
previouse one
