First of all, this is the OS/2 forum. Second of all, check out PowerQuest Partition Magic.

I forgot to add, that Windows XP Can dual boot your os's. Run the XP setup from 98, and choose "New Installation". By doing this, you can choose to run Windows 98 or Windows XP when you turn on your computer. If you choose this method you don't have to worry about partitioning your hard drive.
