If it is mack computers using the dos command will be a good idea, but if it is from dell, hp or other brand you will need the installation cd that comes with the computer, all you need to do is insert the software cd and re-run it.

You need a recovery disc or the Windows 2000 CD. When you reboot with the CD it will take you to partitioning and setup. Its pretty simple.\nTo do a clean install, either boot the Windows 2000 install CD-Rom or setup \ndisks. The set of four install disks can be created from your Windows 2000 \nCD-Rom; change to the &#92;bootdisk directory on the CD-Rom and execute \nmakeboot.exe (from dos) or makebt32.exe (from 32 bit) and follow the \nprompts. \n\n\nThen *F6* very early and very important (at setup is inspecting your system) \nin the setup to prevent drive controller detection, and select S to specify \nadditional drivers. Then later you'll be prompted to insert the manufacturer \nsupplied Windows 2000 driver for your ultra ATA controller in drive "A" \n\n\nIf you wait and then S to specify additional drivers, then it may be too \nlate as Windows 2000 Setup at this point may have already assigned the \nresources your drive's controller is wanting to use. \n\n\nSetup inspects your computer's hardware configuration and then begins to \ninstall the Setup and driver files. When the Windows 2000 Professional \nscreen appears, press ENTER to set up Windows 2000 Professional. \n\n\nRead the license agreement, and then press the F8 key to accept the terms of \nthe license agreement and continue the installation. \n\n\nWhen the Windows 2000 Professional Setup screen appears, all the existing \npartitions and the unpartitioned spaces are listed for each physical hard \ndisk. Use the ARROW keys to select the partitions Press D to delete an \nexisting partition, If you press D to delete an existing partition, you must \nthen press L (or press ENTER, and then press L if it is the System \npartition) to confirm that you want to delete the partition. Repeat this \nstep for each of the existing partitions When all the partitions are deleted \npress F3 to exit setup, (to avoid unexpected drive letter assignments with \nyour new install) then restart the pc then when you get to this point in \nsetup again select the unpartitioned space, and then press C to create a new \npartition and specify the size (if required). Windows will by default use \nall available space. \n\n\nBe sure to apply these to your new install before connecting to any network.

First of all, when you talk about formatting all your current data will be gone.\n\nWhen you start up your laptop go into BIOS (usually pressing F1 or F2 or DEL). Look for an option in there to check the Boot Order. Change (if it's not set already) to Boot from CD-Rom first.  \n\nThe Windows 2000 boot disk will format the hard drive automatically and install for you just follow the directions.\n\nGood luck.

If you know how to go into your BIOS... you have to do that firstly and make sure that your CD-ROM is your first boot device.\n\nAnd just use your Windows XP cd to format. Since it doesn't use DOS anymore. If you wanted to put DOS on it, from floppy. Use your floppy disk to be put on first boot device.

DOS batch programs resemble shell or perl programming. It is pretty easy. You just need to open up notepad and then write the batch program and make it a .bat file. Then from the MS Command Prompt, just execute the file.
