I have a P3 computer with lots of applications. I haven'T used it for a
long while. I have nothing that needs saving so I could re format the
HD and then load the WIN XP.

My preference is to re format and load the XP. Any Web sites with
instructions or guidance.

Thanks is advance
 
Hi .. If you have a windows xp disc ? What you need to do is enter your bios

screen and make sure you can boot off your CD Rom drive , Meaning your boot

order must be set up to boot off the CD Rom first , Afterward once that is

done just save that setting ..... At that point just do the following



1. Insert your Windows XP CD into the CD-ROM drive and restart your

computer.

2. At the Windows XP Setup menu, press Enter to continue setup.

3. Press F8 to agree the License Agreement. Then press Esc to continue a

fresh copy without repairing.

4. Press D to delete the selected partition, then press Enter.

5. Press L to confirm. After you delete the partition, press Enter to

install Windows XP. You can use the UP and DOWN arrows keys to select and

format the partition as NTFS or FAT32. Press Enter again to format the

partiton.

6. Remove any floppies or CD-ROM before your computer restarts. Then follow

the setup instructions to finish the installation process.
