hard disk partition in WinXP Pro

Does anyone know how it is possible to partition and format a hard disk under WinXP Pro? What happened to Fdsik?

Welcome to http://www.pcguide.com/ubb/pcgubb.gif

Put your XP disk in the drive and reboot. When the options come up they will include options for formatting and partitioning. Check the MS Knowledge Base if you need more info:
