 ok, here is my problem. I don't have a cdrom or disk drive on my laptop. I currently have windows 0000 installed, but it has gotten old, buggy, and needs formatting. Now i have transfered all the files from my windows xp cd over to a second partition on my notebook pc. the first partition on the laptop has windows 0000 on it, and it uses NTFS. The second partition has the windows xp setup files and is formatted in Fat00. My question is, how can i get the computer to boot from my D drive (the windows xp setup files), so i can repartiion and format my C drive and wipe windows 0000 clean?? I want to simulate booting from a cd, by using a partition instead. Is this
