  You have a hard drive partition to do - but you would need to contact/see the FAQ from the hardware manufacturer (HP, Dell, Gateway, Lenovo, etc) to see if and how.

  Otherwise - you might have to order (pay for possibly) the factory restore/recovery of the value of the manufacturer.

  I formatted my hard drive and xp wouldn't charge b/c he didn't see the hard drive. I then installed Windows 7 starter and cannot be upgraded. .

  Probably, you need to boot in the BIOS of the computer and changed on the hard drive in IDE mode, SATA, so it can be recognized by Windows XP.

  Before that you plan to replace Windows 7 with Windows XP. Have you tried to familiarize yourself with the operating system first?

• How to format a hard drive in XP?

  I recentley made a restore of the system on my PC. My broadband is provided by BT and the BT Netprotect Plus/McAfee Security. I phone BT to ask my BT Netprotect Plus being reinstalled, they tried three times, without success. BT told me that I needed to have the hard PC formatted disk. If possible someone would be kind enough to tell me what it is and how to go on this subject? My PC is HP Pavilion Media Center that I bought in 2006. Any advice would be appreciated gratefully. Thanks in advance.

  What is your PC model number ?

  It is HIGHLY unlikely that you need to format your hard drive!

  Please, tell us what you mean by "did a restore of the system on my PC." This term is vague and can mean a number of different things. Be as specific as possible. In addition, why perform you this action in the first place? (In the future, if you feel the need to do something like that, do and post here instead of orientation.)

  Finally, what is more/McAfee of BT Netprotect's? Is this some kind of security now? If so, almost everyone here recommend not use you and use instead one better! And there are security programs better who are free. If you are interested, let know us.

• 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:

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

• How to format a hard drive when you're locked volume popups?

  How to format a hard drive when you're locked volume popups?

  Looks like you are trying to format the disk that contains the system volume of in WinXP.  You can not.  It would be the computer equivalent of sawing off the branch of the tree, you sit and WinXP is "too smart" to enable this.

  After saving all the data you want to transfer to the new installation of the OS, simply boot from the Windows XP installation CD.  You will be offered the possibility to delete, create, and format partitions as part of the installation process. (You may need to rearrange the order of the boot devices in the PC BIOS to boot from the CD.)

  MY COMPUTER HAS INSTALLED VISTA AND I WANT TO FORMAT MY HARD DRIVE AND RETURN TO WINDOWS WP

  BACK is not involved in any part of this situation. You don't want to format a drive to be used with XP with BACK; you would format the drive within the XP installation routine instead.

  General information about replacing Vista with XP:

  A. on a computer OEM (HP, Sony, etc.):

  1. go to the OEM Web site and find the XP drivers for your specific model computer. If there is no XP drivers, you can not install XP. End of the story. If there are drivers, download them and store them on a CD - R or USB thumbdrive. you will need after installing XP.

  2. check with the OEM - either since their technical support site, either as - to see if you will cancel your warranty if you do this. If void you your warranty, you make the decision.

  3. If the OEM supports XP on the machine, call them and see if you can qualify to demotion and ask them to send you a XP restore disc. This is by far the easiest and best way to put XP on the machine.

  4. if XP is supported on the machine but OEM does not have a disk to restore XP for you, understand that you will need to buy a copy of XP to your favorite online or brick/mortar store retail.

  5. also understand that you will need to do a fresh install of XP, so if you have any data you want back first.

  6. If none of the above applies to you because you can't run XP which return (see point 1 above), the computer of the machine and buy a running XP instead.

  B. on a generic/home computer built (of the non - OEM company)-you will need the drivers for all your hardware. See the second link below for more details:

• Formatting a hard drive to shorten its life/wear OFF?

  I formatted my computer Windows XP 32-bit, because people are complaining of an outdated OS and their "stuff" does not work with XP. So I decided to install Windows 7 Ultimate OS x 86, but my computer doesn't handle very well the new 7-Ultimate and interpreted wrong and more slowly when my computer was still XP, so I decided to format the drive again and try 7-Home Premium x 86 OS. I'm very happy with it because it worked better than Ultimate, but still a little slower that when I had XP, but has its improvements, until I heard the news than the software that I had to install (I own a coffee needed for installation of a coffee management software and internet) is only compatible with the Windows 7 Professional x 86 operating system. I really want to format the drive again because I need this software to manage my coffee well, but the problem is, I've been formatting my hard drive permanently, it will damage my computers disks?

  TL; DR
  Day 1: formatting, XP to ultimate.
  Day 2: formatting, Ultimate to Home Premium.
  Day 3: about to format, Home Premium edition to professional.

  The question is: these common formats to ruin hard drives from my computer? I researched some say yes, some say that it is not. I'm not really sure what it is and I want answers from a professional computer technology. Thank you.

  Reformatting of drives made little difference in their lives.
