Windows Server Forum / Windows NT / Applications / January 2005Reformatting windowsXP
How do i format hard drive where there is already windows xp home edition and install windowsnt and xp both? Boot from either the NT or XP CD, select the options for a new installation, and tell it to format the selected partition when prompted. You can also repartition the drive during this process. I highly recommend doing this and creating a 4Gb partition for NT4 and a 6Gb partition for XP with the remainder of your drive partitioned for storing data. If you are setting up a dual-boot NT4 and XP system, I would recommend you install NT4 first and installing XP to a different partition when you get to the point where you are ready to install it.
