  • How to format the drive "C"?

    How to format my 'C' drive which is clear of all my files and programs? I want to sell my computer but don't want anything of mine on the disc.

    Hello

    You format the drive as part of the resettlement process.

    Do a clean reinstall of the operating system of your computer to the factory settings; State new, as it was purchased.

    But remember that nothing is definitively deleted; only the 'flag' to where the files are located is removed.

    It is a good program to use to wipe the hard drive of most of the attempts to access your information 'deleted '.

    Then install the own.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    See you soon.

  • How to format c drive Windows XP Pro? I'm trying to downgrade to Windows XP Home Edition OEM CD. Request CD will not allow.

    Hello

    I have a PC with XP Pro, which I think is not a legitimate copy of the operating system.  So, I am trying to install an original OEM OS from Windows XP Home ed. Paraphasing error message: "Cannot go back," I want to start by reformatting the c drive.  However, I don't know how to do so on Windows and in the 'Run' dialog screen.  I tried to start the configuration of the screen (F8 on reboot) but the CD player says "disabled", and I can't seem to activate.  Any help that works will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
    PS: this is my first time using this forum, so I hope I can find the answer if someone answers

    I think xp reformatted drive what ever you choose to install on. A good work-around: do you do a fdisk. Set your bios to boot from floppy. Go to the directory and use the format command. That it will scan.

  • Portege 3440CT: how to format HARD drive

    Hi all

    After suffering a little frustration, I decided to use the wealth of knowledge and experience which is available on the support forum.

    I have a Portege 3440CT which has been delivered to my friend a few years ago, by a company she worked at the time. When the company replaced the laptop, we were allowed to keep the old, we use very occasionally. Unfortunately, the laptop has recently experienced a failure total and irrecoverable from the original hard drive, which was not a huge setback because there was no essential data there.

    In any case, I have from a compatible spare hard drive - a Hitachi 30 GB ATA-5 / IDE 2.5 "9.5 mm 4200 RPM, Pt not ' DK23CA-30F - and mounted, but as the hard disk is not formatted the laptop does not see it is there. As I said earlier, the laptop was provided by the employer, so we are not in possession of any recovery disks Toshiba or Windows that may have been provided, the laptop was originally running Windows 98 Second edition, and the sticker detailing the product key is always on the underside.

    I approached one of the suppliers of services of Toshiba for help and they directed me to Toshiba.
    Toshiba says that the laptop is no longer supported so they directed me to a service provider, I went around in circles.

    My question is, if I bought a copy of Windows 98 SE, or Windows XP and installed on the external floppy drive, which would also include a facility to format the hard drive? I think that in Windows 98 Second edition, there was a function of FDISK. I was able to access the pages of the BIOS after looking through advice given here, I can change the order of boot with no problems

    What I request, essentially, is that now, I have installed a new hard drive, what do I do next?

    > My question is, if I bought a copy of Windows 98 SE, or Windows XP and installed on the external floppy drive, which would also include a facility to format the hard drive?

    Yes, definitely Yes! The installation of Win98or of other versions of Windows like W2K or XP provides an option to format the HARD drive before installing the operating system.
    Simply boot from the bootable CD to get this feature.

  • How to format the drive hard if you are not an administrator

    I have a laptop hp windows xp opportunity and I would like to format it but I can't because I'm not the administrator. How do I format it without admin access?

    You probably mean you want to re - install Windows.  How you do it depends of what laptop you have and whether you have any recovery/reinstallation CDs, but in any case, you do NOT start with "formatting" of the computer.

  • How to format a drive which has Windows on it?

    I accidentally installed Windows on two disks and I want to delete one of them, but he says that it cant format that pushes. Can you help me?

    EDIT:
    Sorry, I realized that I can not format the hard drive. Is it possible to change the main hard drive?

    Plug the HD from anywhere that the computer power and the controller to start. Start the machine. As it starts, go into the setup of the BIOS in the usual way. Set the drive connected as assigned from which the system boots. Note that the other drive is not connected. Turn it back on.

    If the system does not start, insert the Windows Vista DVD into the drive. Make sure that the DVD player is set forst in the boot order. Restart the computer. Use the facilities on the DVD of startup repair. This process will result in changes to the bootstrapper. Restart the system.

    It should start.

    After confirm the operation, stop the system and connect the other drive, restart. Now you should be able to delete what you want the HD with the unwanted system.

  • Format hard drive for Media Center

    I have a Dell E1705, which I used for several years.  During the system was under warranty, a Dell technician I crossed of reformatting the hard drive and had me format in a single partition.  I discovered once this is completed there is a hidden partition to enable the functionality of Media Center work.  I tried to make a 1.5 GB hidden partition, but could not make it work.  I'm tired of formatting and reinstalling and just went ahead and started using it.  Supervisor of the technician, I was working with at the time said to call him just at the time when I wanted to start.

    My warranty has now lapsed.  I want to reformat the hard disk and to return the media center functionality.  I don't know how to format the drive hard so that the installation works properly.

    I have the reinstallation of the operating system CD (DVD) "Version of Windows Media Center 2005 with Update Rollup."  I have a Cd labeled "to reinstall Dell Tools System Software", "Drivers and Utilities for.

    reinstall Dell Inspiron and XPS system software","to reinstall Dell Media Experience 3.1 "and" to reinstall Dell MediaDirect on Dell Inspiron 9400 and E1705 systems".

    I think I can get through the basics of starting from the DVD and reinstall Windows as well as to get pilots back in the drivers disk.   I would get the media central part back to feature so needs to know how to reformat/repartition my hard drive so that it works.  All the words of wisdom / tutorial on adding information necessary to solve my problem would be appreciated also.  I looked around, on the support.dell.com site and forum of users without finding something that helps me to solve this problem.


  • How to format my hard drive as my operating system running IM?

    How to format my hard drive as my operating system running IM? I tried many ways must my computer tells me I have to stop all programs that I have running. play help as soon as possible!

    Some PC contains a hidden hard disk restore partition. If yours is one of them, this is how you return your PC to its original state.

    What is the brand and model of your PC?

    Yet, this is a pretty drastic step. There is more easy and faster to improve performance. If you do not want to give it a shot, let us know. And also tell us the specifications of your PC, type of XP, SP, etc.

    Also, you might find follows her beneficial:

    Here are the usual causes of slow:

    1. malware (malware). You need to rule out first! This page has excellent information:

    http://Web.archive.org/Web/20080610163247/http :// www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

    2. some programs aimed at combating malware (for example, Norton and McAfee). Ironically, they can slow things down because they use simply much too many resources. Sometimes they cause conflicts with other programs. And their default mode is to scan your entire hard drive whenever you start. Fortunately, there are other programs of anti-malware software available that use much less resources (p. ex., NOD32, Avast and Avira).

    3. too much of certain types of programs still running in background - with or without your consent. (Then again, a lot of programs running in the background of the consequences trivial.)

    To determine each program and process, you are running, use the task (Ctrl + Alt + Delete) Manager and click the processes tab. You should be able to sort by CPU usage or memory usage for a good ideas that are resource/memory hogs. You must write the names of all the processes for future detective work (or take a snapshot and print it).

    Use these sites to determine what these programs are, and learn how configure them to not always run when starting:

    http://www.PACS-portal.co.UK/startup_content.php#THE_PROGRAMS
    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/
    http://www.AnswersThatWork.com/Tasklist_pages/Tasklist.htm

    Sometimes, it is recommended to use msconfig to configure programs to run at startup. A better, more thorough program is Autoruns:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

    But before that, you must use the settings preference of the program in question. Otherwise, for some programs, they will return to the list of startup anyway!

    If you do not want to use msconfig, it can be accessed in this way:

    Start | Run | Type "msconfig" (without the quotes). Enter (or OK)

    4. not enough RAM, causing the PC too rely on the pagefile. A quick way to determine if what is happening is to open (Ctrl + Alt + Delete) Task Manager, and then click the performance tab. Then the three values under Commit Charge (k) Note: in the lower left corner: Total, limit and peak.

    The Total number represents the amount of memory you are using right now. The vertex figure represents the maximum amount of memory you made since the last boot. If these figures are lower than the value of the amount of physical memory (K), then you probably have lots of RAM. In case you want to study it more, you can run the Page queue Monitor for Windows XP:

    http://www.dougknox.com/XP/utils/xp_pagefilemon.htm

    5. you can also verify that the access mode of your hard drive has not changed from DMA to PIO:

  • Question: How can I format external drive in exFAT? NOT in NTFS!

    OK, so frustrated that I had to go through the hedges to sign up here to ask a question like that. Why can I NOT format exFAT? I have many external HDDs that were formatted in exFAT under WIndows XP Pro but my new system, completely updated Windows 7 Professional, I can't format external drives of exFAT. The option is NOT available. In the Format window, file system, is the only option: NTFS (default), there is no other option. I googled the * on this issue and found no answer. This external hard drive MUST be formatted as a disc exFAT. Period. Someone please help.

    I'm surprised the research online increase this... You can do it from the command prompt, but not from this dialog box.  Here's how:

    -Open a command prompt by typing cmd in the start/search box, right click on the cmd search result and select "Run as Administrator"
    -Type format g: FS:exFAT , then press ENTER to start formatting the G drive as exFAT
    To view all other options, type format /? and press ENTER.
  • How do you Format C drive when it is the system drive.

    I want to do a clean install of Windows 7.  The problem was obvious corruption in the boot sector.  It should be sometimes up to 1/2 hour of starting the system with a power indicator light flashes.  I did a reinstall of Windows 7, but the problem remains.  At first I thought it was a power supply problem.   But that was reduced to nothingness.   This computer is used for work only.  There are no other schedules.

    When reinstalling Windows it deleted the old files and put them in a folder named Windows.old.  So, apparently, is not wiping the drive clean.  I want to be able to wipe the drive and reinstall to a bare drive.  BTW, I also had the error message 0 x 80070005.

    I want to just start clean.  Resettlement of not not more than two or more previous versions of Windows 7.

    Thank you
