I just followed the tutorial "How-to install Windows 98, Fresh/Clean Install" and it worked well but all my old files, programs, etc. are still on the machine. What I want to do is completely obliterate everything and start fresh with no old files, programs at all. Is there a tutorial for me out there somewhere or is there an easy way to achieve this? I have the original Windows 98se CD and Product Key.
Thanks

You did make a boot floppy, right? Then follow these instructions to use the boot floppy to Fdisk and format your hard drive. Then do a install of Win 98Se with the boot floppy.
