I realize that this response is nearly 10 days old, however, it took
me that long to back up my files and bookmarks since I don't have a
dedicated external/internal HD for backups (something I seriously need
to look at in the near future). So I am now ready to address to problem
(s) I've been having. I changed the Bios to load from the CD, then
started to install a fresh version of XP but I got a warning saying
another program already exists and it wasn't recommended that I
install another and it didn't give an option to format the disk. My
Disk 0 shows this:
volume layout type file system status
capacity free space % free fault tolerance overhead
partition basic FAT healthy (EISA config)
125MB 124MB 99% no 0%
(Cpartition basic NTFS healthy(system)
148.93GB 106.77GB 71% no 0%
below this it says:
Disk 0 125MB FAT (C
GB NTFS
Healthy (EISA Configuration) Healthy
(System)
My question is this; should I go to the command prompt and do a format
C: and then try and install a fresh copy of XP?
Thanks,
Robert
Sorry the information I tried to give got scrambled. It should read
as:
Disk 0 125MB FAT Healthy (EISA Configuration) (C
148.93 GBNTFS Healthy (System) . If I have to reinstall the drivers for the
mouse, keyboard and monitor wouldn't I need to click or use the
keyboard to install them in the first place? How do I get around this
or does the driver allow this?
Many Thanks,
Robert
