Hello all, I recently was given a Dell Latitude laptop with Win2K loaded on it. I'm trying to figure out how to format the HD so that I can make a clean install of Win98. My current laptop as this one doesn't have a floppy drive. How on Earth do I get this older Dell wiped clean (I also do not have ANY passwords, so logging in is short of impossible)????? Any ideas???????
