Or if you slipstream/integrate SP2 into the CD. If you want a clean install - the former is what you want to do. If you are attempting something else (don't know what - really) - then you want the latter. And in reality - an SP2 updated Installation CD would be preferable either way. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |

You could boot from a startup disk that has FDISK on it (get it free from
fdisk.com). Drop the tables on your main boot drive. reboot to the windows cd and it will go from there. "reinstall winows xp" reinstall winows wrote in message ... have old disk of windows xp home edition. but i upgraded now i can't reinstall my disk |
