Got a second drive on my pc that I am going to format. I plan to install XP Pro on this drive when I'm done. Currently running XP onthe main drive, can I just format it by going to the command line>format c: ? Or is there more syntax that I should know of?

Cheers!

I would do it in disk management. Control panel, administrative tools, computer management, disk management.
