Hi Clive,
One of the options with XP is a clean install.
However, to do this, you ideally need to actually boot from
the XP CD.
This usually involves going in to the BIOS and telling the
system to boot from the CD first.
Once you boot from the CD, you will usually be given the
option to basically wipe the disk clean and partition from
scratch.
George.

Hello Anthony,
Your suggestions work, but Windows XP setup has created
another partition, so executing the format command only
works on that partition. My wife is trying to delete that
partition so Windows XP Pro is the sole operating system.
Windows ME is still on the disk, so would it be advisable to
use Fdisk to delete the partition windows XP has created so
she can format the entire drive and do a fresh install of
Windows XP Pro?
Best wishes,
Clive pallet
