Even if you had to uninstall linux those aren't the best instructions. For example here is what I did (I'll explain why at the bottom)
First got the computer with 98 Then installed NT workstation, had to format HD, then linux on second partion, Just had to format that one partion, then installed NT server, no format needed, then deleted the linux partiions and made into NTFS, This I never lost data exept when i first installed NT workstation, u lose all with microsofts way.
Why I did this was, installed NT workstation, It was more powerful than 98 and I got this computer to learn Windows (I'm a mac guy) so I figured learn the better win, installed linux, really wanted to learn this os and it's not as good for macintoshs, installed NT server, Got some real power (for windows) Now I'm on my mac on the net thru my proxy server on the winnt server;), uninstalled linux, I needed space and I couldn't load X under linux cause my video card is shit, it's one of those with the vram on being the real ram:(,
I know your gonna say buy a new video card and start kicking with linux but I don't have much money, (i didn't pay for the WinNTs I got 'trail' cd's with different serial numbers, but you didn't hear that from me) i'm only 14 and my dad will let me borrow money but I have other things to buy. But if some one knows a cheap video card that works with linux or a way to get this one (SiS 550) please e-mail me at GoRN@RemoveThis.techie.com sorry about the RemoveThis you have to delete but I don't like spam;).
