No, the top paragraph says you can't do this in 98.

98 takes drive 0 partition 0 and makes it the C:
it takes drive 1 partion 0 and makes it the d:
then it goes to drive 0 partition 1 and makes it e:
then drive 0 partition 2 if there is one and makes it f:
then drive 1 partition 1 and makes if g:
then drive 1 partion 2 and makes it h:

cd roms are placed after all hard drive partitions
you cannot change this without reformatting and planning the way you want it

If the drive letters can't be changed, then move the programs and data to the drive letter they are registered at. There are programs that help you do that such as PowerQuest's Magic Mover - comes with Partition Magic.
