Re: Formatting Hard Drive from Windows XP.

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

One question to Richard and Keith: Have you tried what I have suggested ? If
not maybe you should. And all of my computers including my laptop are NOT
screwed up. They all work perfect. The laptop is an HP ze5385us and my other
two desk top computers are custom that I built myself from the MB on up. I
have built about a dozen so far for other people and so far no one has had
problems with any of them. And all of the operating systems are legal and
running fine.

Too bad I can't take a video of the entire format operation and place it on
this group so some of you would take note as how this works. I take it from
all those that have replied on this particular post, have never done what I
have suggested.

By the way Richard, all of my HD's on all of my computers have been
partitioned for 100% of the allocated amount, so I'm not just formatting a
different partition as you suggested.

Last comment for Keith: You are a real loser with a big mouth !!!
