I was wondering that myself, if you could just install one OS over another. There were upgrades, from one OS to another I believe. But to install a new OS, wouldn't you have to remove the first one, and then install the new one? From all this talk, I am glad that I DON"T have a network, am using only XP, I also have AOL 6.0 that came preloaded and occassionaly log onto AOL (old habit). I wonder if Harold, who seems to be having so much trouble with AOL, might have authorized AOL to be the start page, which can lead to AOL trying to take over the computer. good luck guys, enjoying the conversations and glad that i'm not having any problems. larry

I meant that we copied windows 2000 professional over windows 98 but we are now having a lot of problems such as modem not working due to aol, audio is also not working. This seems to be more problems then I care to try to fix so would like to uninstall windows 2000 and go back to windows 98. Just wondering if this is possible. ie: Do I just put in the windows 98 CD in again and hit add new software and will it override the windows 2000 until I am finished and then I am able to uninstall windows 2000? Hope this helps.
