Hello,
I was wondering I am currently running Windows ME on this computer and I was wondering if I could put windows 98 on here and somehow run both OS's
Thanks
Coolman

The easiest and safest way is to use third party software to manage & maintain the Partitions and booting.
Partition Magic 7 is probably the best, but there are a few Free/Shareware programs about.

With partition magic to can setup multiple partitions and hide them from each other, so you can have two OS's and they have absolutely no interaction with each other.
This is good because then you should have no problems with OS's overwriting each others files.
The Pro versionn comes with BootMagic which will allow you to boot between the OS's.
