Formatting Question

[bullion416]

I am currently running windows XP pro and I am going to format my drive, then reinstall xp. Is the best way to erase the drive to use a bootdisk and load up Fdisk. Then create the boot partitions which will enable to to use the command "fornat c:" After the drive is formatted that way, you use XP boot disks and then install XP using NTFS. Is there an easier way to do this, which may allow me to skip having to use "fdisk"?

you can boot from your XP CD into the installer and theres an option to format the partition you want to install on
