Downgrading to Win98 isnt an option I'm afraid. Re-install Win98 from CD by doing the following: Create an ERD Floppy (emergency recovery disk) in Windows ME - see help for instuctions on how to do this. From what I remember its an option under start\remove programs - windows components - create ERD disk. Once the floppy is created restart the machine and boot from it. In DOS prompt either format your partition using format c: /q or run the command FDISK to remove\recreate the partition on the drive. Doing so will ERASE all your data. Reboot the PC and again, boot back into the ERD floppy. Select CD Driver Support and in dos prompt select your CD drive (ie: D: or E:). Then type dir to list the contents of the CD. Run setup.exe (or similiar - cant remember the exact setup command for Win98). Follow onscreen instructions! Good Luck
