You should be able to restore to previous OS
Click->Start->Settings->Control Panel,double click the Add/Remove icon,locate uninstall XP Home in list and click the Remove button,once the files are removed,insert the Win98 cd and run setup,which willauto start once inserted
Also you will need to reload all applications that are not working and drivers will need to be reloaded

To add to what soulrider gave you.

The uninstall option is only there if you choose to save your original configuration when you installed XP.

And, you must not have converted the drive over to ntsf file format.

If either of the above are not true, your only option is to empty out the Windows folder and the files in the root folder, and install 98 over from scratch.
