Boot up to Windows XP.
Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties. or In Control Panel, start the Performance and Maintenance tool, and then click System. On the Advanced tab, click Settings under Startup and Recovery, you should see something like "default operating system" click the drop down arrow and change it to the win98 OS.

hope this helps

Well, if you haven't install XP yet, then just put in the installation disc and it will ask you that you can have multi OS in your computer, if you click yes then it will install automatically on the other partition. Just to let you know that you need to get serial key to Microsoft before running XP, if it expires you need to buy it again. To me XP looks like kids candy, also very unstable.
