Impossible to reinstall format drive "C" for XP
Told me to reinstall Windows XP on my pc to solve a problem of 'hijackware', but I can't get past formatting the C drive I get a message telling me "unable to format drive C as another is privatisation it" - or words to that effect - so, how can I get around this.
My BIOS is set to 1) cd read
(2) - hard drive
(3) diskette
... then why can I do?
Also, when I boot from the cd, it ends by takes me to the Windows XP Welcome screen and gives me 4 options i.e. install Windows XP - but when I click it I get a message saying "unable to install WXP this version of XP is older than your current installation" - what do I do now?
I printed out the HOW TO do a clean install of WinXP and also steps to Clean install XP but cannot use them because I can't format the C drive, and when I boot from WINXP CD it askes me what I done said then I can't do it because it's an older version I am trying to load!
I might have misunderstood the problem. Assuming you follow these instructions:

Thank you Tommy...

Should what format I use for my external drive for time machine? I have a WD 2 TB that is formatted for PC new drive. When I got to disk utilities to erase, and then reformat the options are
1 mac OS extended (journaled)
2 mac OS extended (journaled, encrypted)
3 mac OS Extended (respect for case-sensitive, journaled)
4 mac OS extended (case-sensitive, journaled, encrypted)
See the information below If you can not back up or restore your Mac with the help of Time Machine - Apple Support
When you select a drive to use with Time Machine, your Mac automatically prompts you if you need to reformat the drive.
- If you are using an external drive connected to your Mac, use disk utility to make sure that your backup disk is formatted in HFS + extended (journaled) and is the partition type GUID Partition Table (GPT).
- If you use a time Capsule, formatting the drive for Time Machine preferences automatically formats the drive as HFS + Extended (respect for case-sensitive, journaled) with a GUID Partition Table (GPT).

Hi Don,
Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.
I would recommend that you start your computer in safe mode and see if you can remove it from there.
HOW TO START YOUR COMPUTER IN SAFE MODE:
Remove all floppy disks, CDs and DVDs from your computer and restart your computer.
Click Start, Shut Down, and then, in the drop-down list, select restartand click OK.
Do one of the following:
If your computer has a single operating system installed, repeatedly press the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you need to try again.
If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.
In the Display Options Options Advanced startup, use the arrow keys to select the safe mode option you want and press ENTER
Log your computer with a user account with administrator rights.
When your computer is in safe mode, you will see marked Safe Mode in the corners of the screen. To leave safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally.
If please reply and let us know if your problem is resolved or if you need further assistance.

Impossible to install the driver Windows 7 for my Canon MF4150 USB printer and scanner-worked in XP
Original title: Windows 7 x 64 Windows printer problems is not able to resolve
The scanner and my Canon MF4150 USB printer was working fine with my Windows XP computer.
I got a new computer with Windows 7 x 64 OS and I can't get the printer to work.
I downloaded the printer driver specified for Windows 7 x 64.
The installation program is not accepted as I get a message that the resource file are not available.
I then added the printer manually without success.
The strange thing is that it shows in devices and printers but nothing prints.
Initially, it has the usual green check that the default printer then becomes a warning sign yellow when I try to print.
Right-click on the printer and select "Printer properties" and select "Canon MF4100 series UFRII LT" in the SUP menu if it exists, this name may be different in your machine. After the Properties window shows tab select the 'Port '. change the port to another USB port (the one that the printer is connected to), and then apply the changes. Your problem should be solved.

Left attack virus serious that some files disabled in windows 7 (protected by Microsoft Security Essential) a program used on the computer was left partially disabled and I continue when using wireless internet. Reformatted drive leaving 100 MB Partition intact, created in new OS was an old file of Windows not wanted, impossible any attempt at the value of the days of updates, downloads & allowing also noticed wifi. Another reader reformat leaving 100 MB partition again not affected since the original OS. All programs loaded & all updates succeeded, but still did not have through any discussion read to get the computer to WiFi wifi as in Starbucks invites you to discover. I have another operating system on the computer that is able to discover drive internet wifi from loading with windows 7 so not a hardware problem, I think. Question is can a formatted drive on the left with its original partition of 100 MB OS questions with new reloaded windows 7 and is the new installation of the operating system clearly & repopulate this partition of 100 MB for no bug cannot continue to corrupt and better performance? Thank you all.
A new installation of windows 7 can be said to delete this partition. do you when you get to the section "where do you want to install windows?" in installing windows 7. There is a player options button that allows you to delete both partitions... then create 1 new partition for windows and it throws a message saying that the operating system can create additional partitions... blah blah... and she... that way the 100 MB partition is clear.
