witch is the best way to unistall Win XP (in win 98 i know
there was a smartdrv.exe that i had to lounch and then ...

Hi,

Format the disk, install Win2000 clean. There is no downgrade path. You can
do this as part of Win2000 setup.

Why do you wish to regress?

Click to expand...

You can boot from the Windows 2000 CD and delete the XP partition, then
setup will create and format the unallocated space to install 2K.
