Ok.. This doesn't make since. My computer has been showing the signs of
a failing harddrive..(Disappearing files, Crashing during high data
transfer, etc.)

Anyway, one other question... My Windows CD is scratched up beyond
proper use. My first reaction to such a major problem was to reformat,
but it failed. Anyway, I have a windows CD Key, but no working CD. Is
there any way I can reformat without having to purchase another copy?
Any free way?
