In the windows command prompt type FDISK /MBR

This will reset the master boot record to contain no boot manager.

    I have had a problem during the installation of FreeBSD.  As a =
result I had to remove FreeBSD again.  The only way of doing that was =
deleting the partition containing freeBSD.  The problem is that I am =
stuck with the bootmanager.  How can I get rid of that?  (I'm working on =
a pentium with Windows 98)
