You can use the uninstall process if you need to remove Windows 98 from your system and revert to the previous version of Windows. Before making a decision to uninstall, there are some important things to consider. Please read the notes below.
to open the Add/Remove Programs Properties dialog box at the Install/Uninstall tab.
Important
Do not uninstall Windows 98 if you compressed your hard disks after setting up Windows 98, or after you have upgraded your compression.
If you did not choose the option of saving your MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, and Windows 95 system files during the installation of Windows 98, you cannot restore your previous operating system after you install Windows 98.
Notes
You can also open the Add/Remove Programs Properties dialog box by clicking Start, pointing to Settings, clicking Control Panel, and then double-clicking Add/Remove Programs.
If you converted your hard drive to the FAT32 file system after installing Windows 98, you cannot uninstall Windows 98. However, if you had FAT32 before installing Windows 98, you can uninstall without a problem.
You can uninstall only once for each Windows 98 upgrade.
If you uninstall Windows 98, any programs you installed while running Windows 98 must be reinstalled. You may also have to reconfigure your swap file.
Here is something that might help to have more power:
To reserve disk space for extra memory
to open the System Properties dialog box at the Performance tab.
Click Virtual Memory.
Make sure Let Windows manage my virtual memory settings is selected.
Notes
You can also open the System Properties dialog box by clicking Start, pointing to Settings, clicking Control Panel, and then double-clicking System.
Whenever possible, let Windows manage your virtual memory. Windows chooses the default setting based on the amount of free hard-disk space. The swap file then shrinks and grows dynamically based on actual memory usage.
If you need to specify a different disk or set limits on the minimum or maximum reserved space, click Let me specify my own virtual memory settings, and then enter the new disk in Hard disk or enter values (in kilobytes) in Minimum or Maximum.
