The setup doesnt allow me to delete the C: Partition becuase it contains
temporary setup files that are requried to complete installation. Also, my
unpartitoned space only has 8mb. Is there a way to increase that?
It sounds like you're trying to format the drive containing the
system volume from within WinXP. You can't. This would be the computer
equivalent of sawing off the tree limb you're sitting on, and WinXP is
"too smart" to allow this.
Simply boot from the WinXP installation CD. You'll be offered the
opportunity to delete, create, and format partitions as part of the
installation process. (You may need to re-arrange the order of boot
devices in the PC's BIOS to boot from the CD.)
