As I understand it, a simple process will get you what you want:
1) set the computer's BIOS to boot from the CD drive.
2) place M$ Windows 98 bootable CD into the CD drive.
3) reboot the computer.
4) click next, next, next, next, accept - etc, etc.
30-60 minutes later you'll have a single user, multitasking system.
