Dunno if microsoft still make money on win 98 but would anyone be able to provide me with a win98se iso? my computer is screwed and my cd seems to be damaged!!!!!!AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH....

I suppose if win 98se isnt an option i'll settle for something else. Even win 3.1 sounds good!

MicroSoft don't like giving away years of work for free.

If you lost your CD, contact MicroSoft and they should send you a new one - with Windows you pay for the licence, not the CD.

That's true of just about all software - what do they care about 20 pence worth of disc when you paid them for the thing in the first place?

One option is to download it from the net, and use your original CD-key.
Atleast here, it's allowed to do like that, since it's effectivly the same software, that you own, and need a uniqe key to activate, that you own, and the key would not work for other versions then it was intended to do.

But as for downloading it, and use a cracked/serial-generator, that is granting you a free bullet to the back of your head.

I wonder why you can't find any Win98 ISO on the net... why that would be? :blink:

Reason it's hard to find is that microsoft is doing excelent job on closing sites that offers it. (or any other M$ products)
