Hi, John,
If you have a 5 1/4 floppy drive on your win 98 machine that isn't a problem: software is usually downwardly compatible, like whatever works on win 3.1 will work on win 98 and so on. If you don't have a 5 1/4 floppy drive on your new machine, just put the files on a 3 1/2 diskette and then you can use them on your win 98 pc. I don't know if that particular program will run on win 98 but there is a sure way to finbd out... give it a try :) ~~~~

No that doesn't work because
1. Even if you have an 5 1/4" Floppy-Drive the Commodore formats the disks in a format that Winxx / DOS can't read.
2. The basic program of a C-64 won't run under GWBasic / QBasic. The system uses different instructions and processors even if a lot of the syntax is similar.
