Did you upgrade to XP or was it a clean install?
Xp can be uninstalled if it was upgraded from 98 and ME, that is if you
need data or Apps from the PC that where there in 98.
Restart the PC in safe mode and log on as an administrator, open the
control panel> add or remove programs> uninstall Windows XP> Click
remove. After XP is removed the PC will shut down and start Windows 98.
I just saw this question on a MCP exam.
