Can someone tell me where I can get a tutorial that tells me in A B C
fashion, exactly how I can format my hard drive so I can re-install
everything?

Thank you.

This assumes that if you have a large hd, larger than 137gb, your win2k cd
is an sp3 version

Simply boot from the Win2K installation CD. You'll be offered the
opportunity to delete, create, and format partitions as part of the
installation process. (You may need to re-arrange the order of boot
devices in the PC's BIOS to boot from the CD.)
