A friend installed 2000 over 98, is it all possible to unistall the 2000 and restore the 98. The HD wasn't reformatted when the 2000 was installed and they can still get to the 98, but only in safe mode.
View 4 RepliesI installed the SP3 today and have been kicking myself since then. I didn't even follow advice I was giving others to wait. I set a restore point before I installed it and went into Safe Mode to restore to that setting. When I checked on my Add/Remove Programs file it states the SP3 Cannot be Removed. I have read here in a few threads that some people have uninstalled it. I don't know of anyother way other than AddRemove programs. I hope I don't have to reformat. What happened was that my computer would start to boot up and hang, then I got it to boot up as far as desktopand then it will just hang.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to uninstall IE6. I'm using FireFox and completely satisfied with it.I tried looking at MS's website and it tells me that I need to go into Add/Remove in teh control panel to do it.However a few weeks back I had posted saying that my Add/Remove shows nothing at all and I have to remove programs using the registry to find the uninstall string.Now, I'm no expert, or even that comfortable working with the registry but how would I go about removing IE6? I cannot find it under the section where I uninstall other programs from.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI hooked up a friend's HD (to my computer) to install his version of Windows XP on his HD b/c his computer was having hardware-related startup problems we were in the process of fixing. In doing so, Windows XP installed setup files on MY HD. I run Win XP PRO. Not Home Ed., which is what we installed on his HD b/c that's what he had. The installation of Win Xp Home Ed went well and his computer is running fine now.Anyway, so now I have Win XP Home Ed setup files on my comp, in addition to my Win Xp Pro. Every time I restart my computer, it gives me the option of running Pro or Win Xp Setup. Not really a major biggy since I can just choose pro and go on to start my comp regularly. However, if I wanted to get rid of that and get those XP Home Ed Setup files off my computer, how would I go about it?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to clean my son's system by wiping the HD and then reinstall XP Home Edition. I've done this many times before with Windows 98 - it was a straightforward process. With 98 I created a startup diskette, wiped the HD, and then re-booted with the floppy and reinstalled 98.I've never done this before on XP. I have the DELL Reinstallation XP CD (Service Pack 1) and I have the 25 character Product ID stamped on the sides of the PC so that should be straightforward. I've backed up my son's files to CD. Do I need to create a startup floppy?

View 3 Replies View RelatedFirst I had win 95 on my computer than win 98 and then win 98 2nd Edition. I installed Win XP Pro with the SP2. All went well but I had to add some driver etc.I feel that it is not working correctly as there is another computer a friend has with the same program but it works differently. Sorry but I cannot explain it. I'm an old retired person and trying to understand these things.I would like to uninstall Xp and then reinstall. Will I need to go through the driver bit again and will any of my other programs be affected in a way that I might need to do something with them?
