Another dual boot question

[Guest]

I've been running a 98/XP dual boot while I've been doing XP testing to make sure that I'm happy. It's time to remove the 98 system...how do I do that? I'm running three partitions over 2 logical drives with d: as XP boot, e: for applications and c: for data. The 98 system is on C:\.

I meant physical drives, not logical...duh.

Hi Adam,

Do not format C:\, as that is where your boot file reside. All you need to
do is boot WinXP, then delete the Win98 system folders on C:\ from Windows
Explorer. Then start/run "C:\boot.ini" (no quotes) and remove the line
referencing the Win98 installation from the [operating systems] section.
