Takecare many programs works in win98/me can change the serial no. of any HDD which make the above protection has no meaning
 

I think you mean the volume id which can easily be changed, not the harddisk's serial number, programmed by the manufacturer (see eltonjohn's picture above).

HDD's Manufacturer serialno cannot be changed.
