I loaded redhat and now I trying to remove linux and load in a different operating system. I tried fdisking the drive and it still boots up lilo. i tried fdisk /mbr, i tried copying the sys.com file for windows 98 over to the hard drive, and I also tried booting up with a partition magic floppy and deleting all partitions. None of these worked. I fanyone has any other suggestions let me know. Thanks

The problem isn't in your partition headers, its in the Master Boot Record (MBR). Partition magic should have a way to remove the MBR but I've never used the product so I can't tell you how. Failing that, if you have the manufacture's install diskfor your hard drive, that should do the job as well.
