I have not tried this before, but if your USB pen drive is formatted as a bootable drive or you copy a bootable ISO image to it and your mainboard has a BIOS that supports USB bootable devices you ought to be able to do this.

Go to www.bootdisk.com and download Win98SE image, then create a boot floppy. Copy the contents of the disk to the USB drive in Windows, then boot up with the floppy and type "SYS B:".
