Open "My Computer", right click on the "D" drive. Select
format and select options. I found this info in the Help
& Support program that comes with Windows XP. See the
following"
To format a basic volume
Open Computer Management (Local).
Right-click the partition, logical drive, or basic volume
you want to format (or reformat), and then click Format.
Select the options you want, and then click OK.
