Easy if you have a Win98 bootdiskette. Boot to the boot floppy. At the A:
curser type format C: (notice space between format and C the hit enter.
Type Y to format, all data wil be lost.
If you have the 98 CD put that in the CDrom. After format and back at the
A: curser type " setup" without the quotes. This will start the install of
the new OS from the CD.
Be sure to have the Code Key for the install.
