Jeffrey,

Technically it is still doable.
Copy all stuffs you got from WinME to your Win98 driver,
and remove/uninstall all that you don't want on your new
Win98 installation.
Install your liscenced Win98 on top of the WinME and whatever you had on old Win98 one by one.

--------------------
I purchased a 10gb Travelstar drive as a backup and it somehow
came loaded with MS Office running on WinME. I intend to use Drivecopy
and the hard drive carrier and overwrite this partition's contents with
that of my working drive as a backup. However before then I'd like to
copy MSOffice to the Win98 drive, since this is a legal copy I now
own. What files do I need to copy over and how do I install in Win98
once copied over? What are the gotchas? It's going to disappear
when I overwrite the spare drive!

Alternatively, is the MSOffice re-install code somewhere on the
HD containing WinME?

(Sorry, this Windows stuff is all new to me but I am doing some
comparative testing of various OSs so I have to educate myself about
it.)

Thanks again for all help.

Jeffrey Race
