But notice there is NO format step. What many are having to do here is to learn what steps it takes to install an OS changes with the selected OS.

Does anyone have a link handy to step-by-step directions for formatting the HD and reinstalling the OS and other programs?
I think I can do this, just figured some back up instructions sure wouldn't hurt.
I'm not sure if I'll be installing XP or 2000Pro at this point. I am leaning more towards 2000Pro. I've found many features of XP that I do not care for.
Thanks for any and all help!

Thanks to all!
I found this nifty, inexpensive little program that worked like a charm!
I highly recommend it for the not-so-computer literate like myself.
