Formatting

[Joe]

I want to format a computer running XP Pro. How do I do this? Can I use fdisk?

[Bogie]

If you have the XP Pro install CD, you can boot to it and then select to format during the install process. All will be gone, starting fresh.

I was wrong. It is XP home. Does the above still apply?

[Bogie]

Same thing.

[Joe]

Thanks

I agree with Bogie

Here is also a link that will explain how to do this
