Dual Boot: uninstall XP

G

Guest

My computer used to dual boot to win98 on C and XP Pro on D. I Installed XP in a new install to replace win98 on C. Now my computer dual boots to either XP on C or XP on D. I'd like to either uninstall XP on D, or move the files I want to C and reformat D and just use it as a second drive. How do I do either of these steps. Thanks. Bill

All you really need to do is
copy the files then format the D: drive.
(or just delete the windows folder and every else not yours)

You may have to manually change the boot list so only the main C: item is
left
