How to make a reformat online Windows XP?

How to make a reformat online Windows XP?

You cannot reformat the drive or the Partition of Windows XP while XP is running. To reformat the XP partition, you will need to insert the Windows XP installation CD and boot from the CD. One of the installation option is delete and reformat a partition.

Warning: Reformatting will result in the loss of all your data files (Documents, Photos, music, etc.) and you also need to reinstall XP because it will be removed after reformatting.

Is there a particular reason you want to do this?

  • How to make a playlist in Windows Media Player?

    I ripped a CD in Windows Media Player.  However, I can't find it in my WMP library.  The only way I can listen to music is if I insert the CD into my computer.   How can I find the music CD in my library without inserting the CD?  I think I know how to make a playlist, if I can find the music.

    Thank you, Jetta.  I think I found what was wrong. I have not played the music in the 'Unknown' folder in date dated 7/11. When I clicked here and played from there, I'm able to drag and drop.  You asked what was going on until I thought about it.   Thus, for some reason any music 7/11 come immediately when I open WMP. When I tried to drag drop a melody, or all the pieces, I got the circle red/slash, which means "Cannot to this action." Thanks for your suggestions - they brought me to understand.

    You can create partitions with Windows Vista Disk Manager.
    It s not able to partition with the recovery disk, but you can do it with the Vista tool easy enough.

    Make a right click on my computer => manage-online Storage-online disk management
    Then, you can create partitions how do you.

  • How to make a backup of Windows Live mail

    I need to reformat my pc to Win 7 64 bit. I need to backup my emails in Windows Live Mail. I can't use the automatic backup program because I have too many emails and I never got to work. (Quick save)?  I need the location of the directory of email and instructions on how to transfer them to an external support. Then, I need instructions on how to re-import them in own WLM program after reformatting. Thanks in advance.

    Go to the folder where all "libraries" are and make sure you are showing all records - there should be the my documents, Favorites, etc., but it must be marked "appdata".  From there, go to "local", "Microsoft", "Windows Live Mail" and there are all the accounts and records of storage of Windows live mail - you can drag and drop them to a flash drive, DVD, CD, or other external media you have.

    No 'extra' required backup program!  It's almost the same as the old path of Outlook Express, you have just to make sure that the "AppData" folder is visible, but it should be easy to display.
