First XP install Help

I'm trying to go from 98 to xp. when I do the install I haven't seen anything prompting me to wipe out 98. When I get to the partition section it asks if I want to use current partition or deltete. I try to delete and it says there's files it needs there. I say use partition and it seems to leave 98 alone. I need a difinitive guide as to how to do a fresh install of XP.

Can you uninstall 98 before you start to load XP?
