I think I can only do that via that bootdisk floppy, I'm not sure if this applies to the xp cd-rom, anywho. I'm trying to restart everything from start. Meaning going through partitions and so and so. Another alternative way maybe (full reformat) ?? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yesh, boot floppy disk is what I meant. And to make your new partitions, you have to use FDISK (which Daeval mentioned) and you have to format your drive after that anyway.
