Hi Kristine J,
I don't have any idea of how your computer's Hard Drive is partitioned into one than one partition or you have a second Hard Drive, but if you follow these instructions following, it will reinstall Windows XP Home Edition, provided you have a Windows XP Home Edition CD. But you will need to leave the DSL connected to the computer, while you are reinstalling XP HE. Procedure to Reinstall Windows XP! If you want to save any files, make a backup of those files off the Hard Drive and proceed. 0. - Turn off the printer. 1. - Go into Computer Bios and Set Defaults and Exit, if you know how. Make sure the Boot Order is set to Boot to CD-Rom Drive First. 2. - Insert Windows XP CD into CD-Rom Drive. 3. - Reboot the computer. 4. - Welcome to Setup. 5. - Reinstall XP - Press Enter 6. - F8 - I Agree 7. - Esc: Don't Repair 8. - Select Partition to Install Windows XP on. Use UP and DOWN ARROW Keys to Highlight Partition. 9. - Press Enter. 10. - Press C to Continue. 11. - Highlight the Action You Want To Take. Type of Format you want to perform. 12. - I selected Format The Partition using the Fat File System. 13. - Then Press Enter to Continue 14. - Warning Message 15. - Press F 16. - To Continue To Format Partition with the FAT32 File System. 17. - Press Enter. 18. - Now it formats. 19. - After Formatting It Checks The Drive. 20. - Then Copies files to partition. 21. - Now it Reboots to Windows XP. Don't press a key to boot to CD. 22. - And now it installs Windows XP. 23. - You need to be here now. 24. - Starts at 39 Minutes to Complete. 25. - At 33 minutes, you need to set Time and Time Zone. 26. - And Enter The Product Key. 27. - At 29 minutes, you need to pick the Network. 28. - Now wait for Reboot and you are done. The instructions above, I wrote as I performed them. You don't need to format with FAT32, you can format with NTFS format. However, I would advise against doing a Quick Reformat, do a Regular Reformat. -- thecreator "Kristine" <(E-Mail Removed)> wrote in message news  3EBD245-0EF5-4BD3-BB2B-(E-Mail Removed)...> Hi C, > I have 32-bit XP Home Edition.
