Well this isn't really a Win98 problem.

Depending on the age of your computer there are loads of hard drives available.

What size is the drive you have in there now?
Whats the make and model of your BIOS/CMOS?

The biggest problem is going to be your BIOS/CMOS whether that will recognise a larger 
drive. The biggest one you can use in Win98 is 137GB.

Mine is an old system but I bought a 126GB a few months ago but my BIOS doesn't recognise 
it. I also bought a 40GB and that ok.
