Windows 98 is not copy protected. Just use Windows to copy it to a new folder on your hard drive, as in drag the windows cd and drop it to a new folder. If you get read errors, then either clean the cd or clean the drive... regardless, there is no protection on that CD so treat it like you would any basic data cd.
