Hi,
I'm repairing a PC for a friend, but they cannot afford Windows XP, so I was
going to install 95 or 98 on their computer. But I need DOS to install the
OS. I searched Microsoft's site, hoping they released it as a free download,
but I found nothing. Does anyone know if Microsoft still distributes it? If I
cannot get DOS, I will have to install Linux on their system, but they
(although willing) do not really want to have to learn to use it.

Thank you,
--RF

You don't need DOS to install Win9x.
You need a boot disk and a CD.

Have a look here for some instruction:
