Please be a bit more specific in what you did and what error message you
got. Did you try formatting the drive using Disk Manager? You would have
needed to use Disk Manager to partition the drive. How did you partition the
drive? When formatting, did you specify NTFS?

There are a lot of questions to ask before we can address you failure. Let
us know.

I'm trying to install a new disk of XP Pro on a blank 80 GB drive.  It's not
working.  It formatted the drive, then said the format didn't work. 
Got all the way up to 100%, and took some time doing that.  Then said it
didn't work.

I don't want to install it over my XP Home edition (don't have those disks).
Want a clean install on a blank drive.
