OK, I have searched all over the internet to try and figgure out how to wipe Windows XP off of my hard drive. And so far I have come up emty, since I was able to find the solution to my other computer problem here I am hoping that I can get this one too.
I have two hard drives on my computer, only one is active at a time as I have to manualy switch out the power cord. One is a 160 GB and the other is a 320 GB, and what I want to do is wipe Windows XP off of the 160 so that I can installed Windows 98, as several games I have work on 98 and not XP.
From what I have read, and remeber from having wiped my hard drive before, all I need to do is insert the Win98 CD, load up to the Boot Device Menu and then tell it to load from the CD. Well when I have tired that it does not work, here is what I see when I try.
Boot Device Menu
*Onboard SATA Hard Drive
*USB Device
*Onboard or USB CD-Rom Drive
*System Setup
*Hard Drive Diagnostics
*Boot to Utility Partition
When I selcet Onboard or USB CD-Rom Drive I get this message "Selected Boot Device not avaliable", and since I have a CD drive and a DVD drive I tried both, and got the same message. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can to to wipe WinXP off the 160 drive and install Win98?
