I have a 98 install CD. I just wanted to delete 95 and
install 98; however, I get a message that I need an
upgrade CD. I don't have an upgrade CD, I have a new
install 98 CD. What do I do?

Try renaming "c:\windows\win.com" to "win.bak". Then run
Windows 98 setup again. You will probably have to reinstall
all your applications.

back up any info you need to keep...
then just format the drive

boot from your floppy and issue the command format C:

after that you can install thr full version of win98
