If I upgrade to XP, will I be able to format large hard drive partitions, unlike my WIN95 and WIN98 upgrades, or do I need to buy the full version? How about the same question for Windows 2000

Thanks

You don't need to buy the full version. Choose to do a new installation,
with options to delete and format partitions and be prepared to insert your
current operating system install cd to confirm you own a previous version of
Windows and off you go.

Make sure that your bios will handle large drives.
Some times if you have a older bios and put in a 120GB HD
it will only show what the bios will handle.
