You are starting from the desk top.this is the wrong way.put the cd in the drive and restart your computer.you will see "Press Any Key To Reboot From CD.after the files load you will see "To Install Windows XP Press Enter"then press f8 for the license agreement.then you will see "To Install a fresh copy without repair press Escape".From Here You Can Delete All Of The Partitions.To delete the selected partition press D,press Enter then L.Now The Partition Should Say "Raw"When You Press "enter" Again a partition in the unpartition space will automatically be created.you can take it from here.use NTFS formatting.if you use the quick formatt and for some reason Setup cannot format the partition ,then use NTFS regular formatt.hope i was able to help...goodluck

maximum present day pc contain a 'hidden' partition that shops the setup report once you get admission to the fix console interior of XP. you are able to both stick in a boot disk with 'fdsik' from msdos or get your self a stay cd Linux flavour and run 'cfdisk' from console or 'qpartd' to come across the walls on your comp. Ranish partition manager is yet another goodun' in case you wanna sparkling set up, delete all conventional partition, logical, non-logical, non-dos, etc walls and reformat your c:power in fdisk or hda in cfdisk. slightly daunting yet will be a starting up aspect.

If you have a system where you can boot from the CD, make sure that you're booting from the CD. You may have to go into the bios and change the system settings so it first looks to the CD drive before the hard drive when it comes to booting up the system. The reason it's probably not letting you delete the old partition is because you're using it at the time.

You don't have an operating system disk. The computer manufacturer send it with a partition in your hard disk. You probably need a bootable CD Rom of Windows XP and try partitioning from there.

When you started reformatting, did you boot from the CD?
