Greetings --

Do you wish to replace WinXP with Win98, or do you wish to
dual-boot the two operating systems?

If the former:

If you performed an upgrade from Win98/Me, elected to backup the
old system files, and didn't convert the partition to NTFS, then all
you need do is boot into Safe Mode and Start > Control Panel >
Add/Remove Programs. All of these conditions _must_ be met for the
uninstall option to be available.

Otherwise:

If the latter:

You can not install Windows 98 onto Win dows Xp. You can install Windows 98
into another partition and set up a dual-boot configuration.

You can but it's a difficult procedure. Easier installing WinXP after
Win98.
