Default windows Xp

Best way to reinstall Windows XP is format the hard drive for a clean install.
Boot the computer up with an old Windows 98 boot disk (can be found with an search engine). At a: format C: , once you format the drive then boot from the cd-rom with Windows XP in the drive. When the computer starts it will say press a key to run the cd> press a key and it will start to load Windows. Another way to load Windows XP is just boot up the computer with the Windows XP cd-rom and then format the drive in Windows XP setup.When Windows XP setup loads it will ask you if want to recover or a fresh install of Windows XP. Make sure you format the drive and load a new fresh copy of Windows.

Don't try to install windows in Windows XP.

Hope this helps.
