    If you have your Windows XP CD then place it into the drive. Setup the BIOS to boot from the CDROM/DVD player 1st. Boot the computer and you should be asked to press any key to boot from CDROM and start the process. During the install at the beginning you will be given the opportunity to delete the partition and create a new one along with performing a format on the drive.

    Well I am not having such luck. The hard drive is split into 2 partitions, C & D. C has the all the recovery files as well the working files. D can be formatted in the usual way. There is no longer a recovery cd supplied. I have tried booting using the xp cdrom, but it will not have it.
    Surprised no one else has come up with this problem.
    The only solution I can se is to buy a new hard drive.
