re: using windows 98 Friday, June 13, 2003 at 7:24 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Ivan (6 messages posted) Is the Windows 98 disk you have an upgrade or the full version? If it's an upgrade, you should be able to do it. If it's a full version, you might format your drive. Back up any files on a floppy first that you may want. Then go into ms-dos and type format c: . This will then format your drive. When it is done, enter the disk and restart your computer. Your computer should then install windows 98. Formatting is usually a last resort, but it's the only resort that worked with me when I wanted to remove 98 and add 2000.
