However, the idea that my install is not clean is absurd, since the first thing XP does when "upgrading" from windows 98 is to blow 98 away completely. It literally wrote over the entire \Windows directory. (Prior to installing 98 I formated the disk, and after installing 98 but before I installed XP I did nothing. No programs installed nor drivers loaded.)
A clean install is an installation of an OS without the cruft of the OS it is replacing lying around. An installation to a cleanly formatted harddisk. YES, HI?
--SB
What cruft? The hard disk is formated. Windows 98 is installed. Windows XP installs over it blowing everything away since they are two totally different OSes! NT 5.1 (aka Windows XP) has nothing in common with Windows 98! No files are kept! No registry entries retained! The directory structure is trivial! There is a part in the XP install where it explicitly asks, "Is it okay for me to completely re-write the contents of \Windows or do you want me to install to a different partition?"
YES, HELLO? IS ANYONE THERE? I GUESS THE LINE IS DEAD I AM HANGING UP NOW.
No, really. |
