You can create a bootable MS-DOS floppy disk, and put on it the utility which is called format.com. After that you boot your PC up from the floppy disk and use format.com to format the partion where windows xp is installed. Before you start you have to make sure that you have a windows xp installtion CD and a serial number for the windows xp. After you have formatted the partion boot up your PC from the installation CD and follow instructions. Better Idea - If Windows XP was installed with NTSF formatting, this idea won't work. You should do "fdisk" from a bootable floppy before you install Win98. This way the installation will properly format the disk for your new installation. Why don't you go back to Windows 2000 instead of 98?? It crashes a lot less often and will run fine on the old cpi. You will still need 128mb memory for either one to run decent.
