Hi Jim.

It depends if your version of WinXP was an upgrade for Win98?

If its an upgrade then you need a basic Windows OS installed to start with. If its 
a stand alone version of WinXP then you could format the drive and do a fresh install 
but I don't think its going to save you any space because I don't think you have 
much.

What size is your hard drive? How much memory do you have?

Even if you did a fresh install you will still need your additional hardware drivers, 
sound card, graphics card, printer, scanner etc because you may find that your drivers 
aren't compatable with WinXP. Thats another pain of WinXP.
