I need help reformatting and reinstalling windows on my desktop computer. I have Windows XP Professional, and due to getting the Virut virus I need to completely reformat my computer. However, whenever I attempt to it says that my hard drive is not found and the setup must terminate. There was a link to a guide on how to fix it, but this required me to have a floppy drive on my computer. I do not have a floppy drive on my desktop, and so I cannot save the drivers needed to fix the problem onto a floppy and load them as setup suggests.
