With win2000 installed on a machine, someone
then accidently installed Winnt 4.0. Is there a way I can remove the Winnt OS without reinstalling Win2000, as there are
documents in this OS(2000) that are quite
important.

Regards,
Ernest Bola

If You Have Installed Winnt 4.0 just simply uninstall it and the original os will come back but i dont c how u managed to install a lower os on a higher one

as it is nilly impossible unless u have dual booted

e.g. you cant install windows xp then overrite it with win 98 ,me ,2k ert........

but if u uninstall iut you wont lose your information unless u format but if you uninstall then install 2k again u will have 2k and all your docs,programs etc....... in a 2k folder for programs k
