Ok, I work from home most of the time, but I'm also required to maintain a "workstation" at my branch's main office. I have a 7 year old Compaq Presario that is in horrible condition, but I wanted to use it. Unfortunately, it was in such bad shape that I needed to reinstall windows and dump everything on it. I did this with the rescue disk, but didn't think far enough ahead that I didn't have the product key for my Windows 98. I tried downloading a keygen, but I couldn't find one that wasn't just a virus. I owned the original disk, but I have no clue where it is.

Any ideas?

if you really own the disc and can't find it and want to be completely legal, you can call and order a replacement CD.

Normally I would say lock and suspend.

However since Microsoft no longer supports or sells Win 98, go for it.
