This may or may not help you but if you have another OS you wish to use, Win98 (easy to obtain online), go here http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm and download the Windows 98 OEM. Click "Run" after install. Have a formatted Floppy ready. Afterward simply plop in NEW DISK. After a bunch of usless text and it loads keep hitting enter until you reach the "A:" prompt. TYPE "C:" thereafter you should be switched to where the "A:" is switched to "C:" simply type fdisk. You will be ran through a myriad of choices say "YES" if it is okay. Type "3" press DELETE ALL PARTITIONED DRIVES. Then CREATE A NEW DRIVE. Your HD is now empty. WARNING MAKE SURE YOU HAVE BACKED ANY IMPORTANT FILES! Robb
