I would like to format my C:, does anyone know how to
create a start up disk like you used to do in win98 to
enable you to boot to dos, and then format the c:?
Hope someone can help?!
Thanks

Just boot with the XP CD and then reinstall.

The XP disc is bootable - just set your BIOS to boot from the CD drive (see
your documentation for details) and follow the prompts.
