if you mean that you go into windows setup and want to add stuff like wallpaper, games, dial up networking, etc. that have not been installed before then click the 'details' button and select the ones you want in each category. If the stuff is already installed and you want to reinstall it, then first remove it from the list of stuff in windows setup, then (maybe restart) and put them back. That should ask for the cd. If you have a specific problem to fix, let me know, and I'll try to help you.

He has to be talking about the CAB files. What you do is during the installation after you've made a partition and have formatted it you have to copy the CAB files from the Windows 9x CD to the C:\CAB directory. You must make this directory yourself. This copies the operating on to your hard drive. Then just start the set-up process from the hard drive. I'm not sure what the exact DOS commands are for these, but you could find a book that would explain all of this in depth.
