Operating Systems

Somone told me to post this in here as may get a better resposnse.

Im wondering if it still possible to download Older Operation systems such
as Win 98 + Native language versions.


I still have a lot of the MSDN disc's for most of the operating systems and
different languages but I am after one in particular at the moment, That
someone has misplaced.

Due to the MSDN Download section not supporting OS's previous to Windows XP.



Im looking for :

Windows 98 SE - Polish



If any one can help, Please email me or send me a message.

If you're an MSDN subscriber, you can download OSs from the MSDN web
site. (They are supposed to be used for development purposes only). I
don't think you can download some of the older systems, they have
support for Java, which MS can no longer provide. Of course, it's
quite possible that MS wouldn't want to provide obsolete OSs anyway.

If it's not there, then you're stuck. There's no other place where you
can download MS OSs (legally, anyway). You might find what you need on
eBay.
