Connect your computer to some LAN (local area network). It can be LAN at
your work or at school, etc. Probably you have to get a permission for this
from network administrator, ans possibly his help too. Or it can be a home
LAN - a couple of computers connected through switch or router. You must
have according protocols installed (depends on LAN you connect).
In another computer, in network properties check, is File and Printer
Sharing installed. When yes, share it's CD-ROM (in Windows explorer,
right-click on CD-ROM icon, select Sharing from drop-down, and share it as
read-only without password (Win98) or to evryone (WinXP). Insert the install
CD into CD-ROM - when it starts automatically, close the setup window.
In your computer, locate another computer in network neighborhood (entire
network in WindowsXP), and open it. It's shared resources are displayed.
Right-click on shared CD-ROM icon, and from dropdown select Map Network
Drive. Map it under some free letter (p.e. your own CD-ROM is D, and E is
free, so you can map it as E).
In Windows Explorer windows, explore mapped drive (E:). Locate Setup.exe and
start it.
(Probably you need some assistance from someone familiar with networking -
especially when any computer involved has WinXP as OS. For detailed
instructions tere are too much variations, depending both computers OS, LAN
type, etc.)

You have an USB flasch memory stick. Both your comp, and another one, must
be able to recognize it. With WinXP as OS, there probably will not be any
problems - most memory sticks are recognized and connected automatically,
when inserted into USB slot. When OS is Win98, the USB device must be
installed before first use from CD, or from manufacturer homepage.
Insert flasch device into another computers USB port, and wait until it's
connected. Insert CD (close startup window, when it starts). Start Windows
Explorer, and copy contents of CD to flasch device {when there isn't enough
room, consult someone (p.e. the store which sold to you MS Office, or MS
Online Support - p.e. we here have one, where we can get some consultations
through phone), which subfolders are necessary}.
Insert flasch device into your computers USB port. Start Windows Explorer,
locate setup.exe/install.exe on flasch device, and start it. (When it
doesn't start somehow, copy all from flashc device into some empty folder on
your computer, and start the setup from there.)

OK. When you decide to try this, then maybe yo find some friend more
familiar with hardware, and let him do all this hard disk moving part. So
your work starts, when you have contants of install CD on your hard disk.
Start the setup, and continue.
