Does anyone know where to find win98tools.iso?

I'm trying to screw around with old Win98 games on VirtualBox (linux host). A part of getting the video up to snuff seems to be using some resources on a win98tools.iso. But I can't find it anywhere.

Now I'm curious, what does the ISO do? I suppose is not a Windows 98 gold edition (a.k.a. first edition) CD. That together with Windows Security Update CD October 2003 (which apparently was the last to cover updates for Windows 98, 98SE and ME) are both hard to find.

Um... I've got a February 2004 that I marked 'For Win98SE'. (It doesn't seem to like Win7, heh.)

Yeah, that's the one. February 2004 with Windows 98 and ME security updates up to October 2003. I doubt Microsoft distributes it today and I can't find it anywhere. All I came up with is a dead ed2k link from 2004.

Keep that CD secure, it's important for either legacy computers or Virtual Machines. Or better yet, don't let the CD fall into oblivion and distribute it somewhere.

I'd be willing to bet that MGDx has a copy of it on his site somewhere...

Whoa! Indeed, is there. There are various Windows 95 updates I miss from there too.

Thanks a lot for that. I'm bookmarking that site right now.
