I have w2k/p.
How can I install it so that it is all by itself? I have 1 20 gig drive with 3 partitions- c,d and e.
I'm looking to be able to format "c" and just reinstall the os and nothing else.
Thanks,...t :confused: :confused:

What I'm trying to do is be able to format and reinstall w2k/p on "c" and keep all programs, apps, and any other crap on one of the other drives.
Leaving ONLY w2k on "c"....t

Ohh, I see, thats easy. Just format C: and install Win2K. Then when you go to install the other programs, tell the program setup to install it to one of the other drives. There's usually a Custom option when you setup programs that allow you to save it on another directory/drive. Or, look for a Browse option whne you install the programs.
