Reinstall XP from DOS Mode

You should be able to put in your xp cd and reinstall from dos as follows.

1. Boot from 98 CD or floppy disk.
2. Put XP upgrade cd into drive.
3. Type d:, hit enter. (d is the letter of your cdrom drive)
4. Type cd i386 and hit enter.
5. Type winnt.exe and hit enter.

XP setup should start, go through like you are going to install as you did the first time and it should ask if you want to repair your existing installation.
