    Get a win98se disk.
    Set your bios to cdrom as 1st boot device.
    Boot your computer with the 98se disk in the cdrom.

    You will loose everything on your computer, this is often a good idea.  ;)
    Otherwise backup your junk first.

    You do not have to have Windows 95 installed to load Windows 98. If 98 is an "upgrade CD"it may ask you for a 95 CD to insert briefly, but that's all.
