DISQUS

Anonymous · 4 years ago

<ul id="quote">If you have any NTFS drives, if possible try to delete them in Windows before booting to Floppy. So it makes life easier, especially if the parition is created in an Extended DOS Partition. When trying to delete them from FDISK, it might say “Cannot Delete Extended DOS partition while logcal drives exist” however when you try to delete the logical drive, it will say that none exist. If this is the case, what I do when this happens (I’ll explain how to avoid running into this problem in the creating partitions section) is I will go ahead and quick start installing XP and once the XP setup gets to the disk part, I delete the NTFS partition from there and then start my whole installation from scratch again (delete all partitions and create new ones)
Once you have deleted all of the partitions, go back to the main FDISK menu and to the next step.</ul>

THANKYOU! I was going out of my mind, going around in circles!

Hi there,

I followed the recipe however when I boot my pc with Windows XP for a clean install something goes funny as it goes like this :

Boot From CD
Splash Screen Windows 98 for a fraction of a second
and then it stays at the letter c:>

I have tried with Win2K and ME but still nothing

Any idea why I can't reinstall any Operating System?

Thanks in advance
