Dave, I have posted this question a few times and haven't
gotten an answer. I get to the point where it lists the partitions and the C drive is the only one. Do I delete it and then finish with the install? |

If this in reference to;
news:4b5701c3e430$198e86c0$a601280a@phx.gbl then the answer is yes. To do a clean install, either boot the Windows 2000 install CD-Rom or setup disks. The set of four install disks can be created from your Windows 2000 CD-Rom; change to the \bootdisk directory on the CD-Rom and execute makeboot.exe (from dos) or makebt32.exe (from 32 bit) and follow the prompts. When you get to the point, delete the existing NTFS and or other partitions found. After you delete the partition(s) abort the install, then again restart the pc booting the CD-Rom or setup disks to avoid unexpected drive letter assignments with your new install. -- Regards, Dave Patrick ....Please no email replies - reply in newsgroup.
