I want to reformat my hard drive in order to clear out
mounting errors and corruptions. I'm running Windows XP
Home Version. In Windows 98 SE, I entered MSDOS to
reformat. What steps must I take to reformat my C: drive?
I also have a slave drive a CD R/W and a DVD R/W attached.
Do I only need my XP CD ROM disk, or is some intermediate
step needed? Thank you.
