Erm. My XP installation went a bit crazy and failed to load so I installed another separate one. I did this because I had'nt backed up my docs etc did'nt want files overwritten and would simply copy them from the old install to the new one at a later date. Trouble is when I try and install all the old programs I had installed under the first OS they send up all kinda error messages. I'm guessing that this is due to some kinda conflict with their previous,as yet uninstalled incarnations.
How do I removed my first installed OS as it does'nt show up on ADD?REMOVE PROGRAMS?
