Post How do I format my HDD

Hi All
I was having trouble starting my submarine game so I tried to re-install the XP Pro SP2 prog again, near the end of installation the message " Cannot copy file clbcatq.dl_. ensure the disc labeled Windows xp pro sp2 is in the drive, appeared " (it was) as I thought that this was probably something to do with SP2 so for this file and all subsquent files with the same message I clicked on proceed, now my taskbar and All Programs list are missing & I can't get the resolution correct, so I need to format my HDD & do a complete clean re-install of my XP Pro SP2 Disc.
I have saved all the files that a want to keep to my slave drive and some progs to a usb memory stick drive.
The instructions I have for Fdisc-ing are for ME and don't seem to work, and I have read some where that Fdisc only works on FAT 32 and my PC is NTFS, as there is a facility in XP to change from FAT32 to NTFS which I used.
Can anybody explain how I should go about formating my HDD, Best regards Robert.
