***WARNING - RUNNING FORMAT ON A DRIVE WILL DELETE EVERYTHING ON THAT
DRIVE, THAT MEANS EVERYTHING. PROGRAMS, DOCUMENTS, PICTURES, LETTERS,
EMAIL, EVERYTHING. Make sure you have backup media before you continue
like a Windows cd, driver cd, programs, and backup your data first*** If
you have data on the drive and you can't stand to loose it (and your
sure you don't have a virus) you may want to deltree
the drive or delete the registry
and reinstall.
Boot to a Windows
boot disk and use the following script.
If Format can't be found on the Windows
boot disk you may have to extract
it.
When you boot to the Windows boot disk you will be at a "a"
prompt.
Type format X: (enter) X = the drive you want to format.
Hit Y (enter) at the prompt
When done you will get a message that says "Volume label (11
characters, ENTER for none)?
At that prompt just hit (enter)
If you were running format on the "c" drive
then now you will have to Reinstall Windows.
