Default Ex network pc

Win 98se
Hi
I want to use an old pc from my work thats no loger used.
Problem is the machine was networked and every time I now try turn it on it wont let me in cos it can’t find the network (obviously cos its now sat in my house lol)
So how do I get it to load or how can I get it to bypass the network bit?

Btw I can get it to boot into safe mode ok and then have access to the various programs

Ps I can t format the machine because I only want it for the programs it holds

Btw if you want pm me your mobile number and I’ll call you if its easier then writing an essay.

go into BIOS and have a look for the boot devices

may be set to boot only from LAN.

alternatively, open it up and pull out the network card!
