I've used Apple since 1990. I know NOTHING about Windows,
I only understand Macintosh terminology.

Here I sit patiently with a stack full of 200 PAGE manuals
and a Dell Pentium 4 PC, And need help with the
installation.

The documentation make little to know sence to me, and I
would appreciate some guidence.
 
To do a clean install, either boot the Windows 2000 install CD-Rom or setup
disks. The set of four install disks can be created from your Windows 2000
CD-Rom; change to the \bootdisk directory on the CD-Rom and execute
makeboot.exe (from dos) or makebt32.exe (from 32 bit) and follow the
prompts.

When you get to the point, delete the existing NTFS and or other partitions
found. After you delete the partition(s) abort the install, then again
restart the pc booting the CD-Rom or setup disks to avoid unexpected drive
letter assignments with your new install.
