Reformatting can be a nerve racking experience first time round but once you have all the various drivers reinstalled with your OS it gets easier. The above link, go there and locate your OS and then print out the pages for easy reference. www.cyberwalker.net The above link here is the home page and has other links at that site for useful info as well	Guest (0)

Nearly all are able to be backed up in the programs by File>import/export. Then when your sure you don't need anything on the PC, start PC with floppy that you made in. Start with CD ROM support then at the prompt: Type 'format c:' without qoutes. Then confirm. That's it. When finished, type e: to get to cd rom then insert OS(win98 etc.) disk; type setup at the e: prompt FDISK is a utility you use first to make or change partitons and FATs.	Guest (0)
