Norm, the only way to uninstall windows is through DOS. Make sure you have CDrom
support in DOS first though, and make sure your pc has the HD space and RAM to support
W98. Also, after using this method and installing W98 any other programs on the pc
will NOT work. Boot to DOS, type CD:\ to make sure you have a command prompt that
looks like C:\> and then type: smartdrv and hit enter. then type deltree windows
and hit enter and then y at the prompt . When you do this Windows will be gone. Be
sure you want to do this.
