My xp locked up after downloading a driver update from
Gateway After following the screen prompts I wound up
with two XPs I want to clean it out and reload. Should I
format the hard drive? Gateway says to reload using FAT32
partition will this remove the NTFS partitions that are
on there now? or will I have 3 XPs.
 
You would most likley want to format the drive if you wanted to be ultra
clean. However you could just delete the Windows directory you dont want
and remove it from your boot.ini, then setting the installation you want to
boot as the default OS in the boot.ini. That would remove the secondary OS
without hurting your current working install.
