    I don't understand. It should format the drive regardless of whats on it. Did you set your bios to boot from Cd or are you trying to install from Windows?

    Your original XP SPI CD has not lost it ability to boot your computer, no matter what OS is installed, just make sure your BIOS is set to boot from CDROM, then boot from the CD and install the original SP1, before applying SP2 and running Windows update
