Morning Bethany,
I have a sneaking suspicion your win 98 CD is an upgrade version. I think you are
being asked to put in disk 2 of windows 3.1 install so that win 98 can verify that
you are eligible for a win 98 upgrade install. If I am right, you are going nowhere
unless you find your win 3.1 disks or else you Ebay-buy a win 98 full install CD
(with product key). Don
