I recently bought a new cp <w/o an OS> and figured I wouldn't have a problem installing my old win 98 os. Welp, it wouldn't be a problem minus the fact that I can't find it 🙁 (the disk, I still have the book on my book shelf) So now I have a new cpu that I can't use and have been dying to get up and running.

Does anyone know where I can find an affordable/reasonable (cheap? 😛) copy of win 2k or 98? I choose those 2 b/c I'll be using the cpu mainly for games. I also don't mind spending a little more on 2k since I can consider it upgrading and feel a little better about having to buy an OS again 🙁 I never had any probs with 98 so I don't mind that either, I just feel dumb having to get it again 🙁.

Also is win 2k pro the only version of 2k, or is there a regular 2k.

Thanks for your help!
 
I would say it is. I dual boot 98se and win2k. I have had my new rig up and running for 3-4 weeks now. I dont think I have booted into 98since the 2nd or 3rd day. I have it mainly for games for my little guy that wont run in 2k and for a TV capture card that has crappy support for 2k (use it to capture hi8mm video from camcorder). havent even used it yet, so I would go for the 2k (you should be able to find it for lesss then $140).
