I need to format my computer and perhaps run fdisk but Im using Windows XP Home and cant reboot in DOS, of course, and I don't have a floppy so I cant make a floppy bootdisk.

Is there a way to make a bootable CD that would work just like a normal floppy bootdisk?

Thanks.
 
If you have Nero, probably could download free trial version if need be.....How-to make a BootableCD.

ah...you don't have a floppy drive, didn't catch that @ first....but you should be able to download boot files from the site save to have drive...should be able to work around.
 
Hey.....here's a thought, been a long day, forgive me....use your XP home CD, that get you to run setup and format hard drive.....don't know why i didn't think of that before....doh!
 
Oh, woops, I forgot to mention that the CD I am using is a recovery CD and not exactly an XP Home CD... I wish I knew where that one was. 🙁 So that means the format function doesnt work.
