Default Upgrade 98 to SE

I have an old PC with Winodws 98 on it and would like to
upgrade it to Windows 98 SE. I have a full copy of
Windows 98 SE with the registration.

I do not want to delete/format the hard disk as it
contains a lot of data that I do not want to loose and
has a modem and sound card in that I do not have the
drivers for.

Is it possible to upgrade without loosing the modem and
sound card drivers or any of my data ?

Can I load Windows 98 SE over the top of Windows 98 from
within Windows itself ?

Any suggestions would be much appreciated...

Regards

Tappie
