PHP is supposed to run on Windows 98 at least up to version 4.4.4:
http://www.php.net/downloads.php
MySQL can run on Windows 98 period; you just need to start the server
manually (or using a batch file):
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/windows-start-command-line.html
Check out the user comments on the last page referenced; you will find
an example of a batch command file starting Apache and MySQL.
Alternatively, you can simply install Linux on your old computer, if
you
are not using it for anything that requires Windows...
Cheers,
