Q. "How do you upgrade windows 98 to windows 98SE without
buying windows 98SE?".

A. You don't. You need to purchase a Windows 98SE CD.
Better yet, upgrade to Windows XP!

Burn a copy of a friend's copy?

Use a friend's copy?

Copy a friend's CD to your hard drive and install it from there?

After the above, of course, go to Windows Update and secure your computer.

However, all the above is illegal and I would in no way recommend that you
do anything else but buy 98SE.

Why "illegal", if I remember correctly the 98SE CD could be obtained from
Microsoft free if you had a legal Windows 98 CD.
