    Here is a link to the txt files. Don't know if you can actually download the help files.

    If you have the win98se cd then you can extract the files from the cd - I believe their extension is chm.

    To extract files in Windows 98 or Windows 98 Second Edition, use the System File Checker tool. To do this, follow these steps:
    Click Start, and then click Run.
    Type sfc, and then press ENTER.
    Click Extract one file from installation disk.
    In the Specify the system file you would like to restore box, type drive:\windows\path\file (where drive is the drive on which the Windows folder is installed, generally drive C, path is the location in the Windows folder is the destination of the file that you are extracting, and file is the file that you want to extract).
    Click Start. Next to the Restore from box, click Browse, and then locate the Windows installation files. If you are using an OEM version of Windows 98 or Windows 98 Second Edition, the installation files are on the hard disk in C:\Cabs, by default. If you are using a retail full version or upgrade version, you can also insert the Windows installation CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive, and then locate the Windows installation files.
    Click OK, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
