I deleted the partition from XP setup, but when that gave me a hard time, I did FDISK with a Win98 boot disk. Didn't work either way. What did work was installing Win 98, then installing XP over it. During setup XP "deleted" the other O/S, and seems to be running fine now... Doing it this way was definately not my preferance, and I'd love to hear any other suggestions... Thanks! Nicole
