CAUTION
Although not a requirement, NEC recommends that you use
the system’s AC power adapter throughout this process. The
Windows 98 upgrade can take anywhere from 25 minutes to
two hours depending on your system, and interrupting the
process with a loss of power can be catastrophic if the
system performs an emergency save-to-file.
System Requirements
The system requirements for your NEC Versa using Windows 98 are
approximately the same as they are for using Windows 95. As with Windows
95, Windows 98 requires 16 MB of RAM. For hard disk space a typical
installation requires 225 MB of free hard disk space, but may range from 165
MB to 300 MB, depending on system configuration and options selected.

If backing up Windows 95 system configuration files, another additional
50 MB for a total of 100-MB additional hard disk space.

your system has insufficient hard drive space to proceed.
