    The so-called formatting is to divide the disk surface of the hard disk into many areas, that is, to create tracks and sectors in the disk and number them. Once the tracks and sectors are established, the hard disk can store data for the user.

    There are two types of formatting, one is low-level and the other is high-form.

    Low grid: Divide the cylinder, head, track, and sector on the disk, and each sector is divided into identification part ID, spacer, gap, and data area.

    Gaog: Clear the data on the hard disk, generate boot information, initialize the FAT table, mark logical bad sectors, etc.

    Low-level format is the operation before the high-grid, and each hard disk is low-level formatting (i.e., low-grid) before leaving the factory, and low-level formatting is a lossy operation that has a certain negative impact on the life of the hard disk. And the formatting under Windows that we usually use (including formatting under DOS (unless formatting)) is actually advanced formatting.

    There is also a quick format under Windows, which simply erases the data on the drive, does not rewrite the disk sectors, and does not detect them, so it is fast, but it is generally not recommended.

    Formatting will erase all the data of the disk, as long as you don't choose the wrong disk and delete useful data by mistake. After formatting, it is an empty disk and can be used normally. The format is selected to quickly format, otherwise it will be very slow.

    What's more, the last disk of Vista may be used to store the data of the restore system, which seems to be hidden and you can't see it, even if all the files are deleted, there is still a lot of space occupied. If this disk is formatted by you, it may not be possible to restore the system. So please be cautious with the grid.

    Press F2 to enter the BIOS at boot frenzy, change the ACHI mode of the IDE configuration in the advanced to IDE (or SATA, a little blurry, it's not ACHI anyway) ACI mode with XP on the blue screen.

    If F2 does not enter the BIOS, try DEL or F1

    Simple way: take a look at the hard disk mode in the advanced BIOS, change it to IDE, and you can install XP normally. Otherwise, your XP installation disk should be able to load the corresponding driver.

    Is XP installed first? In a C drive? And then Vista mounted on a D drive?

    If this is the case, you can directly format the D drive, which will not affect the XP located in the C drive, because the boot information and boot files are all in the C drive, and they have not been corrupted, rest assured!
