Windows 98 is often available at EBay, or you may find it through the
on-line computer software stores. You should choose Windows 98SE, either
full retail or upgrade retail versions. Avoid the OEM version as it is
designed to be installed to a new hard drive and it usually can't be used to
upgrade an existing system.

Hi Nicole,

Several different versions can still be found on sites such as
eBay and pricewatch.com. The question is, will the hardware
support Win98. You may want to check with the manufacture
before attempting the upgrade.

>sorry nichole, you'll have to buy it if you can find

win98. it's about $200.00 retail if you buy it and you
can not burn a copy, it's illegal(piracy). and believe
me, microsoft will take actions against piracy. microsoft
will be discontinuing win 98 soon, so your best bet is to
get win xp,it's alot easier to use than 98.
