I have a problem. My computer has two XP PRO one on each
partition. How can i format hard disk to install only
one? Is this possible using CONVERT to change FAT32 to
NTFS and then loading again only one XP PRO? or there are
another way to undo partition and format disk again?
 
Hi Muguel,

if you don't need current installations any more, then just insert the CD
and start installing. Soon you will be prompted to choose the partition to
install to. Here you can erase all the old partitions and create new one,
format it and then install the windows XP.

Don't forget, if you used EFS, first decrypt the files and copy them into
safe place or export private keys used for encrypting. Copy these files and
any other important data to a safe place.

Just boot from the Windows XP CD and follow the prompts for a
clean installation. It will do the reformat for you.
