could someone please help me?!!! i deleted my uncle's partition and trying to do a clean install becuase his windows98 kept crashing, so i though if i erase everything and start over again. i did a clean install before like 3 times with my own and never got any problem with it. well on my uncle's computer i try to go to fdisk and it says that there's no "fixed disk present" (!). so i use ez-drive (it's mine), it detects the HDD, so it created a new partition, and it formated. so i insert my boot disk, select with cd-rom help to setup windows, then it says "cannot create a temporary directory. if you have HPFS or NTFS installed on your hard drive, you will need to create an MS-DOS boot partition to set up Windows." I would be greatly appreciated if someone would help me. you can also send me your help by emailing me at: akiradsj@excite.com. your help is greatly appreciated!!!!!!!! thanks!!!!!!
