Yes, although deleting stuff will gain you a temporary repreive, if your hard disc 
(I'm assuming you only have the one?) is three quarters full it is time to invest 
in a larger one - you can get an enormous drive for pennies these days.

The simplest thing to do would be install the new one as the secondary master and 
use it for all your data, leaving Win98 and installed programs on the C: drive.

If your C: drive is quite full with just Windows and programs (and no data files) 
on it, then it'd be best to install the larger disc as the primary master (C: drive). 
 I'd do this in stages: 

First install new disc as secondary master (D:).
Format new disc.
Copy everything from C: to D:.
Now install new disc as primary master and old disc as secondary master.
Install Windows 98SE onto the new disc.
Format the old disc, wiping it clean.
Copy all your data from the new disc to the old disc.

Can anyone comment whether I've got the sequence of events right here - I don't want 
to cause Shirl to lose her data...
