I need to upgrade an old Win 95 laptop to Win98

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion (More info?)

I'll look on Ebay, can somebody tell me what to look for? I inherited a
Compaq Presario, Pentium, 32Mb RAM, 3 Gb hard drive, I don't have the
version of 95 but I need the straight 98 to match my existing computer.


TIA

Steve

Bad, BAD idea. Older laptops do not take well to installing copies of
Windows that have not been customized for that brand of laptop. There have
been cases where the laptop itself has been physically damaged by the
process. Unless your laptop manufacturer supports the upgrade, don't!
