partitions?

Hi,

Boot the WinXP CD, start the installer. After agreeing to the license
screen, you will be at a point to select the installation destination, or to
repair an existing destination. Instead, choose to delete the partitions you
want, then create new ones. Format, then proceed with the installation.

Hi

How were the partitions created? A 3rd party partitioning program such:

Acronis PartitionExpert - http://www.acronis.com/products/partitionexpert/
or
Partition Magic - http://www.powerquest.com/partitionmagic/

may be the best way to re-partition your hard disk.
