148341 2003-05-29 10:01:00 Is it still possible to format WinXP when the only CD for windows xp you have is the 'recovery' one the the PC Company supplies you with? Because I don't want to go find some formatting instructions, to find I have no windows xp cd thus causing myself a lot of trouble.
Any help will be appreciated.

148342 2003-05-29 10:07:00 you should be able to format the drive and the rebuild the system form the recovery CD.

back up anything you want to keep first.
