Boot up the computer in command prompt mode. Go from there. 'format c:' is the command. Make sure you have an operating system to reisntall. Answer 2

Depending on which operating system you are looking to install, the above is not quite correct. If its XP, you cannot boot up in command prompt, as that option is not available, within the F8 list.

If its a earlier OS, then the easiest way, is to download or make a boot up disc, then booting from the floppy drive, you can do what the above poster mentioned. Hope this helps

You have install window xp from window 2000 and after that the installation the internet doesn't work. so you decide to install window xp media edition and it work now you want to unstall the window?

You cannot "uninstall" Windows. You need to format the hard drive and install Windows from scratch. You can do this by booting from the Windows CD (Windows 2000 in your case, I suppose) and following the steps onscreen. The reason that your internet did not work is probably that you neglected to install a driver for your network card or modem. Installing the driver should allow you to use the internet.
