: There may be many more reasons. If you bought a new

Microsoft has to do no such thing.

Additionally, Windows98 is no longer available through normal sales
channels. The only way to install Windows98 now is to purchase a currently
available product and utilise your downgrade rights (if available with the
licence that you purchases - full retail, or Select / Open / Enterprise
etc).

Please read the links that I posted previously to the list.

Cheers
