How do I format (both drives) on my computer and add Win
XP back to my drive. The problem is that windows in
currently on the wrong drive (slower drive) how do I
force it to install on other drive? Thanks.

from the command line winnt /t:your_drive_name

/t[:tempdrive]
Specifies a drive to contain temporary setup files and directs Setup to
install Windows XP Professional on that drive. If you do not specify a
drive, Setup attempts to locate the drive with the most available space.



from any windows winnt32 /tempdrive:your_drive_name
