In DOS (using your window$ boot/recovery floppy to boot clean), type:
    fdisk /mbr   ( I don't remember if you will need to specify the
drive or not?   ie:    fdisk /mbr c: )
This will rewrite the master boot record on your primary HD, and will
remove LILO from your master boot record.

Hope this helps,
