Why not install another hard drive and choose which drive to boot to by using your bios. Windows has enough problems trying to keep it's operating system running, I wouldn't advise running both operating systems on one hard drive if I could do it with two hard drives. Before you do either you want to check "all" your hardware to see if it will run with both operating systems. What may run with 98 SE may not run with XP and God only knows what the next Windows is going to run with as Long Horn may not run with any or either. Good Luck with your system.

P.S. I have two hard drives one with 98 SE and Linux using a dual boot configuration and the other runs with XP by itself.
