1.how can I make the HP reconize the HD with win98.
2.Any way I can keep win XP?
 
Hi,

How did you try installing Win98? What did you use to partition and format
it?

As to the question relating to WinXP, the answer is no. That is an OEM
version tied to the original system. You will need to do a clean
installation of a retail version in order to keep it.
