go to

[path to catalog]/includes/languages/english/index.php

 

Find this Code: define('TEXT_MAIN', 'Edit whatevery you want');

 

Ps: Keep the ' and ' Between them you edit...

I tried that, I tried deleting everything, I don't want any of the default oscommerce, and everytime I save it, it gives me error, and it won't let me access the page,

I put

 

define('TEXT_MAIN', '); and there should be no text at all, but it gives me an error

 

just look at http://xboxpro.net/catalog/default.php

 

 

I want to get rid of all that text, and the top osscommerce banner

You have an extra closing bracket which is showing on that page, and you have not yet deleted the 'error' text, which is why it is still showing on the page. As said before the file to edit is includes/languages/english/index.php. Don't try to edit it in the osCommerce File Manager - download it, edit it in a plain text editor (Notepad not Wordpad), and upload it again. Always take backups of files you intend to edit, so if something goes wrong you can restore the original.
