I upgraded from 98 to XP. I like XP, but it causes some
of my programs not to work (and I've checked for new
versions of these programs, and they don't seem to be
available, and I can't afford to buy new software).

I want to use XP primarily, but I would like to be able to
switch to 98 to use some of the older programs. Is this
possible? I have a kinda big hard drive (not really that
big compared to today's standards!) but I have a bigger C
drive, and a smaller D drive?

Any suggestions on what to do?

It is possible but you would need to install 98 on the machine first to use
it that way. Have you tried app compat mode for the applications that arent
working? Right click the .exe and choose properties, click the app compat
tab and change the OS to 98 and see if that works.
