[RESOLVED] Just want to get rid of XP on a dual boot system

[jponthieux]

I'm dual booting WinXP Professional and Win98 and I want to get rid of XP completely. I had WinNT 4.0 but the uninstall option is no longer available. I'd like to revert back to NT but if I can, that's life...

Boot into your other OS, delete the Windows folder

Then remove the line about Windows XP from your c:\boot.ini file

kinda makeshift but it works

Do you have Xp on a seprate partition? If so, format the partition, make sure the 98 partition is the default active partition, and edit the boot.ini
