Hi

I installed Win 2000 on a separate partition to Win 98 because the option to upgrade was not available. Now I would like to remove the Win 2000 partition off my PC. I have been told to go into FDISK and select Y where it asks 'Do you want to enable large disk support?

Then I was told to choose Option 4 (display partition info) but all this listed was:

Current Disk Drive: 1
Partition: C
Status: A
Type: PRI DOS
Mbytes: 12417
System: FAT32
Usage: 100%

Then i hit ESC back and chose delete partition and then delete extended partition but it said there was none to delete. Win 2000 however, is still available at startup as the default system.

How do i get rid of it completely? The disk just starts the install again if I put it in as it will only do a fresh one.

Also, is it worth me upgrading to Windows NT instead (i want to use Frontpage to its full potential, IIS or whatever)? Is this better than Win 98 or shall i not bother?

Please help!

Thanks
