Boot from the XP CDROM disc, delete the WindowsMe partition, create a new
one using NTFS. Doesn't get any cleaner than that. :-) -- Richard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] * In fond memory ...

boot your system from the XP install cd, and during the install process
you'll be given the option to format and re-partition the harddrive.
