STOP!  DO NOTHING!\nYou will have to pass the computer to someone who knows what they're doing...\nYour machine is currently dual boot, 98 and XP.\nWhen you startup, a menu is presented with the choice of which OS to use.  The details of available operating systems are held in a file (boot.ini) on the C: drive - which is where the W98 is...\nIf you clear/format this drive your PC won't know how to start.\nIf you rid yourself of the W98 partition (so that you can use the space for XP....  screwed again!  All the software loaded under XP (including XP itself) will expect to find XP on the D drive, but it will be the C: drive now.  Nothing will run.\nI recommend that you leave it be!  If it ain't broke don't fix it.\nThere are options in the boot.ini which can cause the XP to be selected as default, and for the menu to chose the default after a certain number of seconds - try setting this to 1.\nBUT FIRST.  Start up W98. use Control Panel to unload all software except W98.  defrag the drive. now you can use any remaining space from XP - for backups perhaps...\n\nBE CAREFUL.  This is a dangerous forum in which to seek technical assistance.  \n\nThe link below gives more about boot.ini\n\nBe Lucky!

You can only unistall it if you installed it as an "upgrade installation", otherwise you'll have to reinstall from scratch.\n\nIf you did install it as an "upgrade installation", then you can uninstall it by starting in "safe mode" and going to Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs>select Windows XP.

What OS??\n\nWindows 98, you don't need to know it.  But, you can delete the password file once you are in.\n\nFor XP/2000, you may need to get into the Command prior to Windows loading.  Just before the BIOS screen changes, start pressing the F8 key to get to the options.  If you can get to the Command prompt without the Password, then you can get rid of the Password.\n\nYou will need to get to the root that holds the Password file, but it can be deleted from there.\n\nIf you cannot get around the password, you will need to reload Windows 2000/XP.

click <start> <programs> <start up> right click on the item in the menu and select <delete>. or right click the <start> button, select <explore> after the explore window opens, right click and select <delete> on the item.\nIf none of this works a registry edit is needed.

the only way to delete start up menu items is through your computer registry \n\nby going to start /run typing in regedit and a new box will pop up. \ngo to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE click to expand software click to expand microsoft click to expand windows click to expand current version click to expand run click to highlight list will pop up in screen to right right click on item delete once all items you wish to remove are gone return to left screen click to highlight run- new list in right screen right click items to delete. exit regedit \nfollow the same directions to bring back up regedit and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER following the same directions as before then exit the registry.\n\nNote that some times some of these programs will attach themselves to running programs and when you delete them they can mess up the other program the registry is used for experience users and if you choose to go forward then you do so at your own risk and you should before making any changes to the registry back it up so you can restore it back to where it was. good luck.

You can completely wipe a harddrive with a program called Dban Autonuke.  Or open Windows Explorer and select the files you want to remove and delete them.  make sure you clear your Recyle Bin.

There are tree ways to uninstall/remove a program.\n1) Stop the program by right clicking on the icon in the taskbar and then try to uninstall in add/remove program.\n2) Boot your computer in safe mode by pressing F8 and selecting safe mode from the menu while restarting , then follow step 1.\n3) If you do not have an option to remove it in the add/remove window then Remove the program from startup menu as follows\n(start > run > type msconfig\npress ok.   Click on startup, uncheck it from the menu. click on apply. click on ok. press restart. Check the window that appears after restart, press ok)\nThen go to control panel > add/remove program to uninstall.\nIf nothing of the above works. Then The best way to remove unwanted programs which you can not remove from add/remove dialog in control panel on your computer is to remove it from registry. If you are comfortable with manually editing registry, otherwise use registry cleaning software like RegScrubXP to remove the entries of offending software from registry and then use a cleaning software like ccleaner to remove other files such as exes, dlls etc created by the offending program. \nFree RegScrubXP registry cleaner\nhttp://bestofrest.blogspot.com/2006/11/regscrubxp-registry-cleaner.html\n\ndownlod + install + run it.\nWhen you get in the software window.\nClick on user defined problems button.\nIt will display all entries in windows registry under different categories. So scroll down the list till you reach a category company. In this category look at the names in full key, and Main key. If you locate the name there, then check the box in front of its entry and press the button Fix selected entries. It should remove the entry from the registry.\nAfter that you will need another software to remove other files created by the program on your computer. It is ccleaner, if you do not have it already; read how to use it and then download it from here.\nhttp://yanswers.blogspot.com/2006/10/how-to-use-ccleaner.html

Go to the exact location of it and delete it. As it says "win32" I think it is in Windows System

The above post is instruction on how to restore your registry and select system files only, this most likely will not give you the desired results (especially since, by default, it only creates a backup of the last 5 successful bootups) and can actually cause errors in some applications.  \n\nTo reset the PC use either the restore disks that came with the PC if you have them or reformat and reinstall Windows using a full install version of 98.  Windows 98SE also supports the upgrade to Windows XP.  If you're interested, check here to see if your computer meets the recommended (not minimum - it will be very slow) requirements.\n\nhttp://www.pcpitstop.com/xpready/default.asp

Sorry to butt in but I might add something here.\n\nIt's been a long time since I have used Windows 98 but whatever the case get to the task manager (right click on the taskbar) and go to the Processes tab then click twice on the CPU tab under that the process that is using the most resources will then be at the top, click end process and it should terminate.\n\nI'm going to tell you that right now I am using Windows XP SP2 so I have no idea how this will work in Windows 98SE.  If it's possible, upgrade to Windows XP, 98 is junk.\n\nI also posted this under your other question just so you wouldn't miss it.
