HELP!

[Butch3r]

I need help guys, your much more knowledgeable about systems than I am. I need a quick walkthrough of how to get out of my situation. I bought 2 computers from a guy, turns out they have lindows on them, I don't know a single thing about that system or how it even works, However i do have a multi user XP that i use for my networking. I need to install it, but don't know how do to a few things.

1. Erase Lindows completely from my system.

2. And Install a fresh XP on a stable system.


Any advise you guys could give me would help me greatly, i don't want to be stuck with something i can't use and thats what i have atm =(.

1) Boot from XP CD.
2) Delete old partition.
3) Create new partition.
4) Point-and-drool until installation completes.

Just try it, I'm sure you'll have no problems. And welcome to the forums.

when i put xp cd in, it goes straight to lindows, doesn't give me option to boot from xp cd

that is enabled in the bios, prior to the OS booting.

Yup, gotta set your boot order to have the CD boot before the Hard drive....
