How to Migrate Windows 98 Applications to XP

If you do the following before
upgrading from Windows 98 (W98) to XP, you
may be able to continue using your old W98
applications after installing XP, without re-
installing the old applications under XP.
1.) Consider KernelEx to run Windows XP
applications on Windows 98.
2.) You will need a separate drive from the
one containing W98. For example, if W98 is
installed on C:\ then you will need a D:\ drive.
Either install a new drive D:\ in your machine or
use an external USB drive D:\
3.) Copy the contents of the old C:\ drive onto
the D:\ drive. Ignore and folders that cannot be
copied because they are in use during the copy
operation.
4.) Install XP on the old C:\ drive.
5.) Go into the directory on the D:\ drive where
your old W98 application exists and try to
execute it.
