Having problems uninstalling Windows 98 from the CD-Rom
Disk I installed it with. A message comes up "This CD-Rom
is from an older version of Windows than the one you are
presently using. Setup functionality from this disk will
be disabled." So I am unable to uninstall. Anyone have
any idea what I should do? I am kind of new to the
computer world, so any help is greatly appreciated.

The only way you can uninstall W98 is if you upgraded over W95 and elected
to save the system files.
What are you trying to do?

Does your CD say anything about: Second Edition?

Go to control panel, system, general tab: What system (numbers) does it
say is installed?
