And now to start system i must load boot manager from this disk where is win 98.

Try booting to the xp disk and going to the recovery console.. when you get there you can type a couple of different commands to try and get the mbr straightened out..
the easiest and first one to try would be fixboot just type that at the prompt.. reboot and see if it works.. if not go back to the recovery console and type in bootcfg /rebuild if that doesnt work nothing will fix it.. good luck!!
