Just install the files you already have, that is enough to work with
DOS in Windows 98.

There is a difference between a DOS shell under Windows and a DOS only

'pure dos', i.e. not a dos shell under Windows, you may get this error

Load error: no DPMI - Get csdpmi*.zip

Then you will know to look at the FAQ, section 6.2
