Windows 98 ??

[Liandrin2]

I'm desperately in need of a windows 98 cd :S

Tried everywhere but the damn things suprisingly hard to come by.

If anybody knows of anywhere I could download an iso of any windows version 98 or earlier could you give me a pm. I've tried numerous torrent sites but alas, not found it yet.

why do you need windows 98? you're not one of those fanboys who believe's that its "the best" operating system do you?

lol course not,

my nan needs a pc to do some wordprocessing and crap. I have a VERY old laptop lying about which only has 32mb of Ram and therefore can't run XP . I'm trying it with a few linux distro's but the damn thing doesn't support them.

Took a look, seems like win2k pro requires 64mb of ram to run .

Getting annoying now, for some reason any linux cd I burn wont run properly with the laptop. It's telling me that the md5 sums are incorrect, tho checking them with a different pc says they are fine.

Figure I might just throw this crap laptop in the bin lol.

or buy some cheap crap RAM for it

Get a simple linux distro.

Any suggestions which?

I've tried:

Debian (strange cd error)
Mandriva (strange cd error)
Fedora (not enough ram)

Figure I'll forget about it tonight, figure it out tommorow...
Had a long day at work so prob just tired.
