Does anyone know where I can download the bootable mini win 98 ? I want to use it for
temporary purposes only. So that it boots up automatically, and I want to fit it on a CD.

The only thing I've heard of that is a bit like this is Win98 Lite - easy to find in Google but I don't think it's a freebie.

No idea if it is bootable so you'd need to check that unless someone comes back with the answer.

Seems more like the poster has stopped looking and vanished off the face of the earth.

I suspect 'OS: win98' was merely to satisfy the forum software.

For the rest of the story (or some of it atleast) see:

OP's efforts are a tad sporadic

I'm not one of those who think Bill Gates is the devil. I simply suspect that if Microsoft ever met up with the devil, it wouldn't need an interpreter.

I now have a bootable version of win98 ,but my problem is as follows .

I have 3 usb sticks and 1 external usb hdd.
Dos usb aspi driver will only recognise my
65meg usb stick. I have bootable win98 on a my 1gig stick, but dos usb aspi will not recognise this stick. I also have a sandisk
4gig stick that it will not recognise.

bootable win98 requires 256meg , thats why I have put it on my 1gig stick.

I red some where that this might be because
DOS can only read usb sticks that have been
formatted as FAT16, because my 65 meg stick
is a lot older than my 1gig stick.

Does anyone know what version of windows allows to format a usb stick to FAT16 ?
