Seriuosly guys this aint hard make a Win98 boot floppy ( If you cant, email me 
I'll put the files on our site so you can download them) plonk the floppy in, 
boot the machine when you get the dos prompt do fdisk follow on screen 
instructions delete all partitions do fdisk /mbr then (after 2 million 
re-boots) do fdisk again and create a new dos partition (if you want one) 
easy peasey lemon squeezy. :-)
