???chaning os from 98 to XP pro

[toddOne]

hello...i am a programmer with little knowledge when it comes to file systems and installing a new OS. but anyway, i was putting XP pro on a friend's pc who was running win 98. when i completed i now had a partioned drive with 98 and XP. what would be the best way to get rid of the 98 OS???
is there some question during setup that i glossed over?
if i reinstall xp will i have the opportunity to drop both of the existing operation systems?

please help! i appreciate any advice!!
thanks in advance!!
