Can you use raid in WIN 98? If not normally is there a program that allows you to?

You need a RAID controller, but yes you can. Software RAID? I've never seen software to support Software RAID in Win98, doesn't mean there isn't any.

Raid doesn't need NTFS, it will work fine with a Fat32 fs.

Yes you can use RAID in Windows 98, however unles WIndows 2000 wherein the OS can manage the RAID array by itself you WILL need a RAID card for Win98.
It can however be just the regular cheapy software RAID cards that rely upon the processor to do the calculations that so many motherboards come integrated with now.
