I'm hoping for some help with the following problem: I recently installed the Windows XP on my Computer on which I had been using the Millenium Windows (I really like this one). Without going into all the reasons why, I would like to get back my Millenium Edition but cannot do so with the XP now installed - the message indicates that another Edition cannot be installed. Question: Is there some way I can un-install the XP Windows? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. Joyce
That's an unusual request. Windows Millennium Edition was universally acknowledged as the worst OS Microsoft ever came up with. Why would you want to "step back" to that? Having said that, here is one article which describes the necessary steps: http://www.freepctech.com/pc/xp/xp00111.shtml As you will see it requires a great deal of work and a fair amount of computer knowledge. The other option is to format your whole hard drive and then reinstall Windows Millennium (you would lose everything if you don't have backups). Quite frankly, I would stay with XP, rather than step back into the past. -----Original Message----- From: jjowen@sympatico.ca Sent: Sat, 22 Mar 2008 15:11:02 -0500 To: gen-comp-tips@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [GEN-COMP-TIPS] Looking for a way to repair gedcom files I'm hoping for some help with the following problem: I recently installed the Windows XP on my Computer on which I had been using the Millenium Windows (I really like this one).
