if all you are trying to do is re-format your Win 98 drive
then here is an easy option

if you have a Windows 2000 install CD, everything can be taken care of off that CD disk ??????
Win 2000 is FAR better than win98
what is your goal????
Are you familiar with setting up partitions and formatting the drive from within FDISK utiltiy / if not we can dig you up a Fdisk guide? Fdisk is more difficult than just using the win 2000 CD for SURE
BTW: if you had alot of virus & spyware problems then I highly suggest you wipe the drive before you begin any clean install
use killdisk for wiping
