Just curious, Aukake. Are you running the installation as an upgrade or are you doing a clean installation by booting from the installation DVD?

You should get the correct screens for deleting partitions by following This Guide.

Yes I'm doing a upgrade. Didn't see a option to delete partitions when i do the upgrade again i see.
First Screen: Asking to get updates before installation. I hit yes
Second Screen: Accept the terms and agreement.
Third Screen: What type of installation do i want to do. Upgrade(when a lower version of windows is there and backups my stuff or Custom(where it installs a new system and does backup.) i did the custom. Cause had way to much on old system and didn't want anything.
Fourth Screen: It shows My partition. No option to delete one before it.

It won't be in the upgrade disk. You need to borrow a full version installation disk to do the steps.
