If it is the look and feel of XP Home that you do not like, try this.. right
click on the START button and alter the view to 'classic'.. then go to
Control Panel and click on the 'System' icon.. select the 'Advanced' tab and
then clicl on 'Performance' settings button.. adjust for best performance,
and then 'ok' out of control panel..

Your question is not quite clear. Do you want to install Win 98 AS WELL as
Win XP or INSTEAD of it?
