Hey there!
Ok guys, as my title announces, this will be my first time formatting my computers hard drives, what i was wondering was...
1) If im doing both drives, (200gb maxtor and 80Gb unknown) then this means windows is wiped too i take it? So what happens when your done formatting? it needs to restart? Then you put the windows XP cd in?
2) What's the best order in which i should re-install all the drivers etc? i have to be careful of the internet i take it? as it may be pretty vulnerable?
3) The reason im doing this is because my PC seems very sluggish, i take it this will solve problem to some extent, seeing as it hasnt been formatted in about 2 years +
I know i sound a bit dumb, but please bear with me, thanks!
Cheers in advance.
P.S im backuping all necessary stuff onto my External hard drive and to probably make it easier for you guys, is there just a website with a good guide? Thanks!
