Try using a Windows'98 Start up Boot Floppy disk.
At the "A:>" prompt type "format c: /q" (omit quotes!)
On re-booting enter BIOS and change Boot Priority so that CD Rom is first
drive and disable others. MAKE SURE OPERATING SYSTEM CD IS IN DRIVE!
Exit and Save and continuing booting and new Windows install should start.
Hope this helps.
This works for me...
