Greetings --

Simply boot from the WinXP installation CD. You'll be offered
the opportunity to delete, create, and format partitions as part of
the installation process. (You may need to re-arrange the order of
boot devices in the PC's BIOS to boot from the CD.)

Not really sure which drive XP is on. So lets assume XP
Click to expand...
is not on your C drive but lives on your e drive.
you would go to
Start>Control panel>Computer management>Disk Management>
then highlight the volume "aka drive letter",right click
and choose format.
you will not be able to choose format if your c drive is
the primary partion..

Assuming that you want to reinstall Windows XP, just boot from
the XP CD and follow the prompts for a clean installation. It
will reformat for you as part of the process.
