Hi If you have a win98 disk, do you still need the product key? My code does not seam to work when using the built in program. Do I have to go into the bios to use the disk. Any help appreciated. ::)

My code does not seam to work when using the built in program. Not sure what you mean. Windows 98 was on a CD and the cover/case had the product key printed on it. If you don't have the case or product key then the disk isn't much use
Do I have to go into the bios to use the disk. Depends on the computer if it has an option in the bios to boot from cd, if not you will need a floppy disk with cd support and then run setup from the CD. You can get the boot disk image from here
