I have an IBM Thinkpad 760el presently running w2K. I'd
like to remove w2k and reinstall w98. I have tried the
methods published in Q250456. I cannot get any of the
commands to work. I cannot "REMOVE NTFS FILE SYSTEM"
using the method in the article. The article indicates
that one can use Windows 2000 startup disk to invoke the
Recovery Console. I cannot get the recovery console up
using the method described in the article.

Can someone tell me how to remove windows 2000
professional from my system?
 
I have a problem with windows 2000 professional. I have a
xircom Realport ethernet 10/100 + modem 56 card that I
have been trying to install. I called the company and
they concluded that I have a problem with my operating
system. Therefore, they suggested re-installing w2K
operating system and re-install the drivers for xircom.
 
Some people have gotten it up and running in W2K even though it isn't
officially supported. I don't believe there are W2K drivers for it but you
could try the NT or 98 drivers and sometimes they actually work. Try a
manual driver install. Point Windows to where the drivers are since you
probably won't get a PnP with this card in W2K. I am pointing to a manual
that will show you how to install under NT. Let me know if it works or not.
