Ok, short version: how can I use an OEM setup disk on a different computer?

Longer version: I have a valid install code, and just need to use the 98SE setup files from a Gateway setup disk. I could copy the /win98 directory locally to the new drive and install from there, but what file do I need to remove/modify so that I don't get "This can only be used on a Gateway computer" warning?

Thanks

Restoration cd's are typically machine specific.
Is that what you have?
