ok, here is my problem. I am trying to load XP on a pc bought at a school auction. The pc is a Strata 850 by Omni Tech. It had (so I was told) Windows 2000 installed in it. It goes thru the normal setup options fine until it comes to a blue screen that states the follow:
Windows XP Home Edition Setup
The following list shows the existing partitions and unpartitioned space on this computer.
Use the UP and DOWN ARROW keys to select an item in the list.
* To set up Windows XP on the selected item, press ENTER.
* To create a partition in the unpartitioned space, press C.
* To delete the selected partition, press D.

SOOOOO, how am I to get around this? Is the hard drive messed up?
