    Whussup to everyone?

    Im planning to give my computer away to a friend, but he wants it clean and formatted. Unofortunately, I'm pretty new so I wanted to know where I can get some tips and steps on how to do the process from start to the installing XP with the disk. Any help is appreciated...

    Thanks. ol1v3r.

    Enable the Bios to boot from CD, insert the CD and reboot.

    The rest is pretty straight forward and it will tell you what to press and give you prompts.

    There really isn't much more to it than that.

    Only thing is once it has installed Windows remove the CD or it will go around in circles.

    HERE are the steps outlined.
