This is easily done with Windows NT but not with Win98. I suggest that
instead you move things like the Temporary Internet Files (in IE, Tools,
Internet Options, Temporary Internet files Settings, Move folder.

You can also move the swap file - right click My Computer, click
Performance, Virtual Memory, then click Let me specify my own virtual memory
settings. Change the drive letter. I suggest that you do not change the
minimum or maximum size but let Windows continue to manage the size.

Using TweakUI, you can easily change the location of several special folders
such as My Documents, Favorites, etc. I'm guessing that just moving the
swap file and Temporary Internet files (if this system uses IE) will take
care of your problem.

Is it possible to change the location of the temporary spool file that is
created while printing?. My C: partition is of restricted size to
facilitate disk imaging with programs and data on E partition. When
printing very large files from a photo thumbnail printing program or from
Publisher if the page is graphics intensive I sometimes run out of disk
space for the spool fle.
