nTFS shouldn't be causeing any problems, but if you really want to start clean and
go with FAT32 (I'm running it on my computer because I don't need the security features
right now and data access is a prime concern) start by booting from the XP CD and
when it gives you options, tell it you want to do a New install. When it asks for
the partition, follow the on-screen instructions to delete all the partitions that
show up and then create a new partition to install from. The next screen (shows
the directory to install in) has options that let you choose the file system...
Good Luck
