The best way to do this is to format the hard drive / partition in question. This is true most anytime you are installing an OS. While it is possible to avoid the formatting, my personal experience says you are only asking for trouble if you don't do so. Especially if you are trying an "upgrade" of a Window's OS.

Is it possible to remove a linux os like mandrake completely from a hard drive using the installation disk and then install a windows os in it's place ? I always seem to have hidden linux files left behind that cause problems NS _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
