You can buy upgrades for your machine. In fact, microsoft would love you to buy upgrades so they make more cash.

Are you saying these "disks" are OEM Win98 disk and OEM Office disk, or are you saying these disks are "OEM manufacture disks" that came with your machine.

What kind of machine do you have? Did you build it yourself, or was it built by Dell, compaq, hp, etc.

It's quite important to know.
