Win2k Startup

[kryt]

Question - Since removing win2k build 2053 (not enough hdd space and lack of sb live support) i am still stuck with the startup menu of booting to win2kk (that dont exist) or Micro$haft Windows (win98) - what filez do i delete to kill this menu and get me back to win98 normallity?

You don't as such.

Unlike LINUX/98 systems simply typing 'fdisk /mbr' won't remove the 98/2000 bootstrap loader. :/

It works via both bootsector code and using file(s) located in the root of your C: drive. I would strongly advise against attempting to delete any of these files as you may find your system no longer boots as all.

Re-installing Win 98 would fix it, as the 98 installer overwrites the present bootstrap loader. There isn't, afaik, any other way of removing it safely.
