A clean install is not always necessary, slightly better stability and performance can be expected when XP is installed to a clean hard drive or partition. \n\nIts nothing to do if u want to take the hard drive.

It's not really a problem, this is often done when you want to have a machine dual boot, lets say... windows xp, and windows 98. Xp uses ntfs, and 98 uses Fat32.

Install Linux, it is free!  Windows 98 is not free, if you get a copy of it that would be software piracy and therefore illegal.  Linux is better anyway, and it is time for you to learn a new operating system (really, it's not that hard)!

Same. System restore is a function of the windows operating system...not the pc type or style

An installation program almost invariably inserts a "key" in to the O/S registry. When the files are deleted the registry key remains and this can royally fuck with your system.\n\nUnistall programs are there for a reason as is the "add/remove programs" entity in the control panel. If the guy doing the uninstalling doesn't realise this(or, even worse, ignores this) then he shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a business network.
