I sent you a Windows 95 and 98 uninstaller. I'm sure you already have it, here's how you use it:

1.) Put the emergency boot floppy into your disk drive
2.) Power on your computer
3.) At the prompt, type, without qoutes, "format c: /s"
4.) Press "y"
5.) Wait for uninstaller to finish

You are now ready to run DOS and Windows 3.x!

If you wish to uninstall Windows 95 and Windows 98 and use Linux, you are able to use another uninstall utility on the disk.

1.) Follow steps 1 and 2 above
2.) Type "fisk"
3.) First press "3"
4.) Press "3" to delete any logical drives you might have
5.) Press "2" to remove the extended partitions
6.) Press "1" to delete the primary partition
7.) Press "esc" to leave the Delete partition screen
8.) Press "esc" to leave Fdisk
9.) Restart your computer

Congradulations, you have uninstalled WIndows!

Merry Christmas Driver Guy, remember my gift when good ol' Bill p's you off, or when Windows starts to get flaky.
