I have a Dell XPS R450 purchased in Nov' 1998. I also have a brand new custom built machine. After getting the new machine running and all my old date transferred I decided to do clean the Dell out. I also ran the Microsoft compatibility and it passed. However I had trouble installing XP. I installed W98 and immediately upgraded to XP. Perfect setup.

This was on a freshly Fdisk and formatted drive, also Dell had a bios upgrade that I used first.

If you are prepared to clean the drive go ahead and try but do not upgrade over your current system, it sounds as if you have already done one upgrade to W98 from a former version.
