This should not be a problem. You do not need to
uninstal Win95 -- just instal Win98 over the top.
We assume you have backed up essential data
(including personal configurations for your word
processor etc.) and have all driver and application
instal disks to reinstal them from scratch.

The instal process does not delete any apps
on your hard drive: indeed, it looks for apps
installed already so as to add them to the
/ Programs menu.

Good advice is available at

Why are you installing W98? If W95 is not broken
and it is doing its' job, why "fix" it.

Sometimes going to a newer version of Windows is
a bad thing, as in the computer only has 64M of ram.
Hardware horsepower (not enough of it) can be an
issue.
