some usb pen drives will install with windows 98 se ( not the original)
go to the website / support and look for support or drivers
You may have to use the driver from an earlier smaller model of the same line of drives if the drive is available
If it is larger drive ( say bigger than a gig) it may not work in windows 98 se
I have had inconsistent results
You will need the windows 98 driver to make the usb flash drive work in windows 98
The easiest way to transfer data for you is to set up 2 messenger accounts
- msn ,yahoo ,skype , eyeball chat or whatever
Have to have the same service on both
Have a router to share the internet connection
Log onto each messenger account and simply send the file to the other computer
If the files are numerous , or they are programs you can compress the files into a zip file or rar file envelope
and then send them
The handshake or connection is made over the internet but the transfer is done by the router at high speed over your home network ( not over the internet) its fast and easy
Keep asking questions
With any luck you will be able to do much of the computer setup work yourself and save your money
If you do not have a network card on the windows 98 computer either find an older one that may install easily or you may have to buy a new card that has a driver disk with it
You have to have the correct version instal program or it will not install
If you buy a network card make sure on the box that it says that it works with windows 98
You may need a windows 98 cd to install the new network card
