Though I doubt it'll work if you don't have another hard drive... I'll check on some more ways and will update this post if I find any... -------------------- Austrian Alex Posts: 1307 \| Registered: Tuesday, May 7 2002 07:00

Say yes to that option. Also, if you have created a boot disc (floppy) for Win2k, that might give you that option as well when you are loading your computer. From there, it should start up and load into MS-DOS automatically. Then you should be able to format the HD. -------------------- Austrian Alex Posts: 1307 \| Registered: Tuesday, May 7 2002 07:00
