computer crashed about a month ago...After many hours I was able to format
and reinstall xp...I think it is crashing again as I am getting the blue
screen and occasionally a "no boot device detected" black screen. Before I
reformat again, can someone direct me in formatting correctly...my kids put
only a few of their software games back on and the computer is saying it is
out of space(11% free)it won't allow defrag due to lask of space.....I think
when I formatted I didn't partition something right??? Before the crash
there was 65% free space and tons more software on the hard drive..I think I
understand how to use the CD to reload windows, just don;t understand what
partitioning is and how to do it...thanks in advance...I am not completely
computer illiterate, but this has me quite confused, as I thought when I
formatted, all the hard drive would be empty and back to lots of free space??
