The documentation received with WinXP RC1 and RC2 mentioned this and DID state you would have to re-install your old OS.

I had heaps of problems formating my HDD after installing xp, so I used my old dos 6.22 setup disk, then I used my win98 setup disk to fdisk my hdd and every thing is ok now.

Before you junk everything and try Win2K, you may like to do a trawl for updated drivers for EVERYTHING you have. Although W2K is stable and MUCH better than WMe, it is not so forgiving with drivers as is WinXP in my experience.

>eXPerienced this myself. Hey, all you do is restart then press the f8 once every second as machine loads up, then a screen will appear, you select "Safe mode" on its own. Then it will ask u for admin password(you've set this up when u installed it),wait, then u select start/settings/control panel/add-remove programs, then select uninstall windows xp, and then your in. Later man.
