You should be able to make your comp a dual bootable one with two operating systems.

hey don't use win98 because it is dead, I meant it is no longer active no updates and patches are available for it.
If you've a new computer less than 1.5 years old then most probably Win98 will not run in it. Win 98 has more bugs and less secure than Win XP stick with XP.

Most old games are able to be played on XP, I still sometimes play Fury 3 and it was built for windows 95. What games are you trying to use?
huh?..

I'm talking about a dual boot with 98 and XP and the games I am trying to run are old games that were designed for DOS

U can run games on xp as windows 98.
Just **** on the icon of the game,
**** properties
then go to compatibility
then **** `Run the program in compatibility mode for`
and choose for windows 98.
After that u will be able to play the game.
