I purchased two computers on e-bay, and one copy of Windows xp home. I
installed it on both and then decided which computer to register it on which
I did. Now since it expired on the second computer I cannot boot up to
remove XP. It keeps asking me to register and not allowing me to uninstall
or do anything else. How do I remove it? Can I remove it with a dos
command? I can get to c: prompt in dos.

Help is appreciated.

Boot a DOS floppy and run FDISK, delete all partitions and
then partition again and format.
