I am currently running Windows '95 B on my computer:
TMC AI5VG+ motherboard (VIA MVP3)
AMD K6-2 350 with 64 MB RAM
Diamond Stealth III S540 Xtreme
also modem, soundcard other essentials

I have a few minor niggling bugs with this which I am told might be fixed
with an OS upgrade, but is it worth the fuss?

I have both an OEM copy of Win 98 and an OEM of Win 98 SE available for me
to use.  Can I upgrade without reformatting the Windows partition over the
current installation?  Do I have to install to a fresh partition and is it
possible to copy the essential files needed to replace program registry /
system settings?
