Raj,
Don't you wish PCs had a platform service like PFC? <g>
Unfortunately there are no shortcuts. The easiest way is to get another
(bigger, faster and cheaper) hard drive, set it as a boot drive and install
NT on it from scratch. That way you can still access your data. Or backup
the data to a JAZ drive and wipe 98 out. You will need to reinstall the
programs.
My current IDE favorite is Western Digital 7200RPM Expert.
Ultra-ATA/66 - 7200RPM 8.5MS 2MB cache
18.00GB - $207
27.3GB - $240

If that's not in your budget get a 13 Gig one from http://www.ebay.com for
$100. Hey, want mine? <g>
Check to make sure your MB bios supports large drives. You will need at
least SP3 (or was it 4) on NT to support these drives.
PS Go NT all the way. Format the new drive with NTFS.
