reformat

[nucklehead]

trying to reformat C:
and install windows 98se, the os presently installed is windows 2000 pro.

 

[sjonnie]

Boot from Win98SE CD or boot disk and type format C: Although I have no idea why you would want to revert to Win98 from Win2K.

If your Win2000 is NTFS, you need to run FDisk to delete its NTFS partition and create a new one to format as FAt32 for W98.

Good or Bad have no meaning at all, depends on what your point of view is.

 

[Crashman]

Boot from the 98SE CD, use Fdisk to delete the old partition and creat a new one, reboot, use Format to format the drive

Fdisk is located in the root directory of the CD, Format is located in the Win98 directory of the CD.
