You will get the desired result by installing Win98 into a new empty
folder. Then after you have Win98 working, you can delete the old
Win95 folder.

The following article explains how to install Windows into a new
folder:

However, before doing this, you should make backups of any files you
cannot afford to lose, such as letters, spreadsheets, financial
records, address lists.
