Sql server 2000 driver and windows 98

Question

i know that this has been discussed many times but i cant find an answer to my problem. was hoping someone could shed some light on it.
getting the error:
classnotfoundException: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.sqlserverdriver
ive set the classpath and the path.
set PATH = %PATH%;C:\CIMAGE\IMASTER;C:\ORAWIN95\BIN;C:\Novell\Client32;C:\Progra~1\Mts;C:\J2SDK1~1.1_0\BIN;
set CLASSPATH = C:\Progra~1\mssqls~1\lib\msbase.jar;C:\Progra~1\mssqls~1\lib\msutil.jar;C:\Progra~1\mssqls~1\lib\mssqls~1.jar;C:\J2SDK1~1.1_0\lib;C:\javaTest;     
code snipet:
public void makeConnections(){
try{
String DB_DRIVER= "com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver";
StringDB_URL= "jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://myMachine:1433";
     String username = "sa";
     String password = "password";
     Class.forName(DB_DRIVER);
     con = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,username,password);
     System.out.println("Connection with DB ..........OK");
catch(SQLException ex) {
     System.err.println("SQLException: " + ex.getMessage());
catch(java.lang.ClassNotFoundException e) {
System.err.print("ClassNotFoundException: ");
System.err.println(e.getMessage());
am i missing anything?
when i downloaded the driver it didnt state that windows 98 was supported, i was wondering if this was the problem.
