Why would you want to go back to Windows 98???\nIt is junk compare to XP.

you got a tough row to hoe trying to get 95 and xp to work together, it is hard enough with 98 and xp. if you look around you might find some sort of software that will hook them up, but tried once or twice and gave it up. I just ugrade the 95 to 98 and get it going

first of all why r u uninstalling ur windows xp. if u are finding problem with windows xp then u can use the original windows xp. firstly boot up ur system via windows xp cd. secondly u will find alot of options. Either u can remove the current operating system and reload the fresh one or u also have a option to repair it. its very user friendly to go about. u can format ur hard disk to freshly install the xp using the windows xp cd. so that u dont find any options.

Techniclaly, no, you need at least Windows 98 in order to use your XP upgrade.  But there are workarounds - for example, you'd have to install from Win 95 instead of from booting up.  See the second of the links below for details.

Restart the system, keep hitting the F8 key until you get into the menu, at the menu select "Use last known good configuration"\n\nIf that works then bingo, if not then if you can get into windows at all then go to start--> run and type ( or if you are lazy copy and paste this command )\n\nsfc /scannow\n\nMake sure to have the xp disc or the recovery disc handy.\n\nIf that does not work then back up all of your data and do a clean install.\n\nHow to do a repair install :\n\nhttp://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm\n\nHow to do a clean install :\n\nhttp://www.michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html\n\nHope this helps.

I'm afraid, it seems that there's no way to uninstal it. BUT you can try this way: Goto control panel/ Add or remove programs/ And then goto the Add or remove windows components tab, Then Select Accessories and uncheck it, then click on the next button. The accessories will be uninstalled completely. Don't worry! You can go to the Add or remove windows components again and check the accessories option and again click the next, Insert the WinXP CD and then instal it again from your WinXP CD...

Assuming you used followed all steps in the Windows XP setup you will most likely have formatted the drive in an NTFS file system. Unfortunately 98 uses FAT32 file system and they are incompatible. To install 98 you will have to format and start from scratch using a win 98 CD. I have to agree with the others though going to 98 is a major step backwards, stick with XP. If your desperate to change OS either go to linux or wait for vista which is just around the conrer

If you chose to keep your old Windows installation and the FAT32 file system, you should be able to uninstall Windows XP. Please see "Sources".\n\nIn case you do not have an option to uninstall Windows, back-up all your important files onto CDR/CDRW/DVDR/'another hard disk'/'other forms of memory', (create a boot floppy as described in next paragraph,) format your hard disk, and install the version of Windows you want.\n\nWindows XP's CD is always bootable, so you won't require a boot floppy. I assume it must be the same for 2000, but for 9x, most probably you will need a boot floppy. After you finish backing up, insert a blank floppy and (from within XP) format it as a start-up disk. To format,\n-Open My Computer (in your new XP Start menu).\n-Right-click the floppy drive icon.\n-Select "Format".\n-Put a tick mark in the check box named "Create an MS-DOS startup disk".\n-Click "Start" button (the one in the Format dialog box)\nOnly then should you format your hard disk.\n\nI'm not sure of FAT32 taking up more space, but if you use NT/2000/XP, then it is highly recommended that you try your best in sticking to NTFS. Check out the Sources for some information regarding the two file systems.\n_______\nViva La Dvorak! - www.dvzine.org

use system restore if you are using xp,open system restore put a check in the box restore. it will open up a window with a calendar click on the date before and take it off that way, or take back to a date where your pc was working right and try the un- install again . all system restores are completely reversible.

Under the circumstances, a clean install would be the best option. Delete the 3 directories ie. PROGRAM FILES; WINDOWS; MYDOCUMENTS and you're over with Win9x. Boot the computer using the XP disc and pick up the setup from there.
