I have an eMachine T2042 that came with XP home edition
pre-installed. I've performed a Restore Disk twice (once
thanks to the sasser worm) and am aware that I can re-
format the hard drive during set-up using the built in
feature. However, I would like to know to do the DOS
fdisk procedure. eMacines walked me thru it once, but I
neglected to write it down and the PC's support coverage
has expireed. If a future calamity required it, the DOS
fdisk would be used to make SURE that the hard drive is
re-formatted prior to a Restore Disk operation, thus
ensuring a clean install. I'm fairly pc illiterate and
need the step-by-step instructions. Can someone provide
the instructions, or a useful link to them? - Thank You
