I upgraded to Windows 2000 from Windows 98. I used the clean install option. Now when I start up im asked if I want to use 2000 or 98. Is the 98 still using up space and ram ect and if so how can I remove it? I dont see myself ever using it and 98 wont work with NTFS anyway and wont even start up. any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks Bryan

Start over again and do a complete install. Deleting the existing partition and recreating it when prompted in the 2000 install. Soylent Green is PEOPLE!!!

Thanks very much, I will try that. Bryan

To see if 98 is taking up space, assuming it's the usual install: dir /s c:\windows If 98 is not running, it could hardly be using RAM. I always partition, format and sys with 98. That way, when the day comes [not if, but when] that I need to boot in DOS to unscrew NT, it's available. This setup only takes a few MB of HD space. Not a big deal on 10GB+ HDs. If at first you don't succeed, you're about average. M2

Odds are folks, just a edit of the boot.ini was in order. To see if "98" was taking up room, all that needed to be done was see if there was a "windows" folder. Delete it and you would be done. Golly gee wilerkers everyone! Learn to Internet Search
