How to Uninstall Windows 98

Q186102

If you performed a Windows 98 upgrade from Windows 95, and converted your drive to FAT32 after the upgrade, you cannot go back.

There is a round about way to get back to Windows 95. However, you will need to reinstall all of your application software.

Make sure that you have no files that you want to keep in the root directory of the C: drive, or in the Windows directories. This would include screen savers that you added to your system.

Then, you need a copy of Windows 95 version 2.5/ C. This is Windows 95 with FAT32 support.

You can purchase a copy from www.bigclearance.com

Boot from the startup disk.
Switch to the folder C:\Windows,
Delete all files and folders.
Also delete the system files in the c:\ (root) directory.

Reboot from the floppy, and install windows 95.

Windows won't know that you have any application software installed, and, will need some DLL files from the install disks in order to run them. So, you will need to re-install any software that you want to use.

If you want the active desktop features, you need to install IE4 before you install a newer version of IE.

None of the older versions of Windows, or DOS support FAT32.

Or, you could nuke everything, and use fdisk to remove all partitions, go back to FAT16, and install the OS of your choice.
NOTE: DELETING A PARTITION REMOVES ALL FILES!
BACK UP ANY FILES YOU NEED FIRST.

If you did not save the system files when installling Windows 98,then the option is not there
One option is you can backup the programs that you want to keep and use FDISK to wipe the drive clean,this would destroy all data on the drive
Insert a startup disk in A:\drive,choose to run setup without cd-rom support
At the command prompt,type Fdisk and choose option 3 to delete primary partition,then follow the onscreen instructions to partition and reformat the drive

Why??? you knows!!
Upgrade NT,2000/XP or backup your DATA and Use Win95 Aor B. and a white Head.
