You don't have to uninstall and then reinstall.  The installation cd comes with a repair feature, it you only want to fix things, that does not disturb your data.  You put the cd in the drive and go through the install procedure.  When you get to the part where it asks if you want to use the Repair Console, say no, skip that, and go on with things until you have to press F8, and then after that there should be a notice that an installation of XP has been detected and what do you want to do, and one of the options is press R to Repair the installation.\n\nOn the other hand, if you want to competely erase XP from the drive, then just put the cd in the drive and follow the prompts to format the partition.

The best thing to do in this case is for you to reformat like the others have suggested and install a fresh copy of XP but if you have never done this it might throw you at first. With your machine on, stick in your copy of XP in then reboot. Then after it starts to reboot it will ask you "press any key to boot from CD" Press any key at this point and then wait for it to inspect your systems hardware then it will load some common drivers etc. After that it will look to see if you have any previous versions installed. When it shows you those other versions it will ask you if you want to continue installing Windows on this drive or something like that. At this point you want to get rid of the previous versions and any partitions. If you read carefully you can delete any other versions and/ or partitions and then install a fresh copy of XP. Make sure that you have gotten rid of all other OS's and partitions and if you have it will say "to install on this partition press enter" and you should see "new(raw)" and then however many MB's your drive is. At this point press enter and it will ask you "install XP NTFS or install XP NTFS(quick). Use the first one "install XP NTFS" Press enter and it will start to format the drive and then let it install XP and your all set.

There are two primary ways to install XP.  You can do a full install which completely wipes out your hard drive, or you can do a Repair Install.  A Repair Install will NOT erase your programs or change your personal settings.  You will have to visit the Windows Update site to reinstall any updates that came out after your XP install disk was made (including SP2 if it's not on the disk.)\n\nThis link give you step by step instructions for a Repair Install, including actual screen shots of what you will see. I selected XP Pro but the steps are the same for XP Home.  I'd suggest trying the Repair Install first.  It takes about an hour.  The Windows Updates will take about another hour.  If the problems are fixed, great.  A full install takes about the same amount of time, but then you've got to reload all your other programs and put your personal settings back the way they were.  And that could take all day.  Hope this helps.\n\nhttp://www.windowsxpprofessional.windowsreinstall.com/installxpcdrepair/indexfullpage.htm\n\nplrr

since you didn't said what you are trying to uninstall, here are some reasons i'm guessing:\n\n- corrupted registry\n- missing uninstaller\n- the program was manually deleted without using the uninstaller.\n\nyou might want to try this program from micro$oft.  It's a Windows Installer Cleanup Utility\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301

Do you have a branded computer?\n\nI would advise you to contact the dealer for the reinstallation.\n\nYou need to back up the data on the hard drive before you reformat and install windows xp.\n\nMake sure you have the disks of all the other necessary software you may require after the reinstallation.\n\n\nDisconnect all the external devices like an external CD writer, Zip drive (internal also), USB Memory Key, printer, scanner or card readers that may be connected to the system before proceeding with the reinstall procedure.\n\nFirst the system has to be booted through the Windows Xp CD \n\nTo boot from the CD:\n\nEnter the BIOS of the system and change the order of devices used by the system to boot from the CD Drive.\n\nAfter the system boots from the xp disk, follow the onscreen steps to perform the reinstallation.\n\nAfter the reinstallation of the operating system, install the drivers of all the components.\n\nUpdate the system after reinstallation.\n\nI would still advise, if its a branded computer pls refer to its user manual or contact the dealer.\n\nUjjU

You may have the option to do a full reinstall or to retain your files. \n\nI wouldn't recommend choosing the option to retain your files because it doesn't always work.\n\nI would backup all of the files on your harddrive that you would like to keep (maybe onto a CD-ROM, memory key, or external hard drive) and do a full reinstall.  \n\nIf you are going to go through the trouble of reinstalling though you may just want to upgrade your operating system to Windows XP.

If you need to uninstall a program that you have previously installed you need to do the following:\n\nStart Menu > Settings > Control Panel > Add & Remove Programs.\n\nSelect the program you want to remove from the list and then click on the 'Remove' button.\n\n\n* I am making the asumption that you are Windows XP PC user.

Assuming you are using WIndows XP, click on the Start button, then choose Control Panel, then choose Add or Remove Programs. Find the program you want to uninstall on the list and click on it to remove it.

Go to Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs>select I.E. 7 and uninstall it.\n\nWhen it's uninstalled you will automatically revert to the previous version, which is I.E. 6.0 in Windows XP.

I don't think you can, that was part of the lawsuit against microsoft. They use internet explorer to display the file system to you, i.e. when you look at the files in the c: drive. So I doubt you can uninstall it.

Actually, If you already have xp pro installed, you can simply put in your cd and reboot..\n\nIf your cd rom is set as a boot device, your xp cd will boot in a dos-type mode, and as you navigate through the blue screen menu's there is an option to delete your prior windows installation and install a new "fresh" copy of windows..  You could also just repartition the drive and do a fresh install, but you will lose all other data on the drive..
