Windows 98SE
I have an old computer that kept crashing, so I had the bright idea to
reformat the hard drive and do a clean install. The machine is an old IBM Aptivia and I don't have all the original software for it. Now that I have erased the hard drive and tried to install Windows 98SE, it is asking for the original software to do the upgrade compliance check. How do I get a copy of the original software or what should I do? Thanks in advance for your help. |
