Should Format Hard Drive Using Quick Format Or Not
Oct 8, 2005I need to get my HDD reformatted with the help of a paid technician.Couple of weeks ago he used the quick format method & asked him if that would make any difference & he said really not.I have the doubts though. I kind of wonder why would Windows then give a choice if there really wasn’t any difference?

Jul 22, 2005Ive got a huge problem.I got a Dell Latitude Cpi off eBay with Windows 2000 and the CD. I got a Windows XP CD recently made a new install with it, it had an error so I ran the Update install over 2000. It had another error in the install but I told it to continue with the install. (Big Mistake) Now I have two incomplete installes on my laptop. I can't get on any Oporating Systems.I'll tell you what happens when I turn on my computer: It starts like normal with the Dell screen, then a error. The error says, Memory Read/write failure at 08000020, read 00EF00EE expecting 00EF00EF Decreasing avalible memory.

Nov 10, 2008I have tried numerous times to re-format my hard drive on my XP desktop. Each time I boot from the CD and it goes through the normal process and then the screen goes black. The monitor is still on, there is just nothing on the screen. I have left it that way overnight thinking maybe it is working but it remains blank. No cursor, nothing.

Dec 26, 2005I have formatted the drive on my laptop and reloaded the programs from disk (XP) and have a few questions.
1. Reloading the programs from disk was pretty straightforward but downloading and installing the Windows service packs, updates and patches etc took hours (on broadband).
Can I back up these updates to disk so in future I can save all the downloading time and what exactly do I save? I looked in the files and just don�t know where to start!
2. After loading the various programs from disk and a few others such as AVG, Zone Alarm etc but prior to downloading the Windows updates the disk space used was about 3Gb. After downloading the service packs etc the disk space used jumped to over 9Gb! (yet, when I add up the individual folder sizes, it comes to only 4.4Gb)
Do the Windows updates take up an extra 6Gb? And where are they hiding?
Disk Already In Use - Cant Format It.
Oct 24, 2006My son couldn't find the original XP cd that came with his Systemax, so we bought a new XP Pro OS and installed it. While I was working on the connectivity issue, we found the original XP cd. Since I had not activated the XP Pro, I'd like to switch to the original XP and save the new one for a future laptop.
But, when I went to install the original, I didn't seem to have much of a choice because it was about to install the original on the same partition as the XP Pro . . . so I quit, and tried to format the HDD again, but since I was using the Command Prompt, MS said that the disk was already in use so that I couldn't format it.
C : Windowssystem32configsystem / Format To Fix
Nov 24, 2007My kids kicked the cord for my keyboard and it came out, so when I tried to put it back in the power cord came out, then when I tried to get onto my computer I ran into this problem. I went to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545/en-us I can't even do step one, I got to the right directory, did the md tmp then tried to copy the files. It said it didn't copy them, so now what do I do. I have the win cd, but I just formatted my puter 2 months ago, and haven't been able to get my other hard drive in to save my pics and stuff, so i really don't want to format to fix this prob.

Aug 10, 2005My uncle was given an old Dell Latitude cpi laptop at work. Though, no discs or anything were included and the machine isn't formatted, it loads up to the password entry screen and I can't get passed this because they didn't include a password. Is there anyway to format without having a disk? There's no floppy drive, only a cd-rom.

Dec 31, 2008So I just bought the HP Pavilion DV5 and it came (of course) with Vista. So I rounded up all the drivers I needed and prepared to wipe it and install XP. I have done this before on many computers.However I get an error message after it boots from the CD. I get the Windows setup screen with the blue and the grey bar at the bottom telling you what it's doing. But after that, instead of the menu I get:"A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer."It tells me to check for viruses and remove any new hard drives and such.

Apr 10, 2005i just bought a hp pavilion desktop that apparently has the sasser worm on it as i kept getting the countdown popup. i put on avg antivirus and removed 19 different worms and virus's. i then ran ad-aware and spybot s&d and removed over 400 entries. i have researched and applied how to get rid of the sasser virus but i still get the countdown popup occasionally. i also can not get any updates from microsoft to download. all i get is an error. since it still does odd things every now and then i think the best bet is just to completely format the hard drive. i want to get rid of everything including the hidden partition hp puts on for recovery. i received all the recovery cd's that came with the system when it was originally bought. i do not have a stand alone xp home cd for it. is win xp home on those recovery disks and are they all i will need to format the hard drive?

Format A HD - Install New HD In PC
Mar 14, 2005My genius self thought that I could take a HD from one computer and hook it up to another and everything would be just dandy. I never thought about the configuration that the HD goes through getting the system specs before an operating system is installed. Now I have an error saying NLTDR not found... Press CTRl, ALT, Delete to Restart and I can't seem to find how to fix this problem. Well here is my real question for which I am searching for an answer. I have a HD that I took from a computer and I want to add it as a secondary HD to another computer. My problem is that the HD that I am adding has Windows Xp on it and I just want to format it so I can add it to my computer as a secondary HD. How do I format this HD before installing it on my pc?
