If you are upgrading your 600X from Windows 98 original to Windows 98SE
using a Microsoft CD, then I don't think what you will have is a clean OEM
CD install, but regardless, here are the key links you'll need to update
almost any 98 install on a 600X:

And of course, if you decide to wipe your drive entirely and do a completely
clean install of Windows 98SE using your Microsoft Windows 98SE CD, then you
might consider trying the instructions provided here:
