You can look for them in CAB files. I don't recall the correct syntax but it's something like this...

Pop in your Windows 98 CD or copy the CAB files to your hard drive. At a command prompt, type:

extract -l -a winXX.cab vnetsup.vx_

It'll tell you what CAB file contains the vnetsup.vx_. Next, you'll type:

extract -e winYY.cab vnetsup.vx_ vnetsup.vxd

This will decompress the vnetsup.vxd file.

NOTES:

-- Most of the Win98 files in a CAB are compressed, thus the _ in the filename.

-- The -l (lowercase L) will list the contents of the CAB

-- -a will process CAB files with matching names, such as WIN98_01.cab, WIN98_02.cab, etc.

-- -e will extract the file. You must provide the name of the source CAB, the compressed filename, and the name you'll call it uncompressed

-- Repeat this process for the other file(s) you are missing

I may have the commands mixed up but this should get you started.

Good luck.
