Ok i wanna install xp on my D drive because it has lots more space. The D drive i want xp on i just formated so its ready to go. But I want to format my C drive and then install xp pro on my D drive. But when i boot with my installation diisk when i Sellect the option to format after its done formatting it will start to install xp files on that hard drive. I have a usb drive with the files to allow me to boot my laptop so i can boot from my disc.
So i was thinking that i should format the drive and When its done turn off my computer. So then i would have 2 formatted hard drives. Then plug in my usb and put the windows disk in and continue to install xp on the desired drive. What do you guys think.
