Strange. Usually XP is good about this formatting. If you have another computer and use Acronis products, a good thing is to boot with Acronis Disk Director Suite to see what's going on with your active drive. It boots from CD in DOS and you can format or do whatever you want. Short of that, I usually use the utilities that come with the disk brand, be it Seagate, WD, or whatever to format and get ready for the rest.
