I backed up all my stuff and wondering how I reinstall XP. Do I go to C
drive and right click and format? Do I have to run some program or whats
the easiest way to do this?
 
Thats it huh? I have been having problems with the computer locking up and
I was told to reinstall xp.
 
If you also want to format your C: drive (to do a clean
install of XP) - (I saw you mentioned formatting your C:
drive) - you'll have to use a Windows 98 start diskette.
Just insert it, restart your computer, choose any of the
options displayed and simply type "format c: /y" at the
prompt.

Once done formatting (or if you only want to RE-install
Win XP) - put your XP-disk in your CD-unit and restart
computer (remove any diskettes first) and the computer
should boot from your XP-disk. (If it doesn't, then you
might have to enter BIOS and rearrange your bootsequence.)
