Yer, format is the only way... unless you want to dual boot. But if you have NTFS you won't be able to dual boot with win98. |

I can't remember exactly what you install first when dual booting win2k and win98... I know if you do it in the wrong order it is f***ed though, I think it is win2k last... someone will know for sure though. |

one idea MIGHT be, convert C to NTFS, leave D as win32 when you boot your computer using a 98 boot disk it wont detect the C: and class D: as the windows 98 "c" and then re-install 2k or "repair" it meh, i got NFI Rodolphe: 98 first i belive, then 2k into a seperate folder or HDD |

Win2k last 98 writes over the Master Boot record thus making 2k unbootable till you put a boot manager on. Whereas 2k installs a boot manager and puts 98 in it as a boot option. |

I think you're able to "uninstall" xp through the add/remove programs list...then choose which OS you want to downgrade to |
