XP is designed to be installed from the CD. Set your BIOS to Boot from
the CD. The XP install will take care of Format, partition, etc.

The operating system is Windows ME.  Can I just go to a Dos prompt and type in format c: /s?  Then just put in the Windows XP professional disk and go? Believe it or not, my tech person is not familiar with ME and is not sure if this is the way to go.
