Hey,
Can anyone give me a flippen clue on how to totally
format my hard drive?
XP doesn't seem to do it, I have tried with the Install
CD, and with the run command within windows. (xp = no dos)
I also went to my hard drive manufacturer and tried to
use their programs to "write zeros", but alas it wouldn't
do it. (kinda humorous actually, the windows program of
their software directed me to use the dos version, and
the dos version directed me to use the windows version!)
Anyway, Please give me some good info on formatting the
hard drive. I need a fresh start for XP.
Thanks in advance!
P.S.
MS is trying to drive me crazy with stuff like this. I
mean really, its not like every user doesn't need to do
this every year or so. UGH!!
