Windows 98 on Virtual PC

I have Virtual PC 7.0.3 on my iMac G5 (PPC) running OS X 10.4.11, and I run
Windows XP Professional within VPC.
I have a language CD that I used to run on a Windows PC which needs Windows
95, 98 or NT 4.0. I uninstalled it from the old PC some time ago when I sold
it, and have recently tried to install it on this version of XP but without
success.
Can I install Windows 98 SE on my VPC in addition to XP? As far as I can
see, I do this by Selecting File - New, Create New PC, and Install your own
Operating System. If so, could anyone advise me on the best place to buy a
second-hand copy? I am a bit hesitant about buying such software on eBay
since I can't be sure it is legit, and cannot find such an old OS anywhere
else. I am in the UK.
The other choice I have is that I have a dying laptop with Windows 98SE on
it. Could I transfer that, perhaps via a USB stick? (There's no CD drive on
the laptop so it was not installed via a CD.)
