When he reinstalls Windows98 its going to overwrite the mbr of the C:\ Drive. How's he going to boot into Windows 2000? That's the only question I have. You can boot from the Windows 2000 recovery disk and run FIXMBR from the recovery console but that's about the only thing i can think of him doing. Feel free to prove me wrong though..

I tend to agree. when win 98 scans the C: and D: drive it will find a later version of an OS and will refuse to install.

physically disconnecting the D: drive maybe will allow 98 to install.

it all depends on how bad the corruption is.

murphy's law always got me when I tried to skip on the tried and true method

I hope goldxx lets us know what did/didnot work
