Format Windows Me?
Hi guys i'm having some difficulty formatting Windows Me. I basically want to wipe my harddrive and re-install and start from scratch. Having loaded the Windows Me Installation Disk I was prompted to either save my current operating system, or delete it. I chose to delete it, and went through the installation process, but when everything was complete my old files were still there.
I basically need a dummys step by step guide on formatting Windows Me Please help Cheers Strike |

Guys, I have now got to the "routine check" and it has found damaged files and just about every one on Disk C is corrupt!
Any ideas? Cheers |

Download a WIN98 bootdisk from www.bootdisk.com Boot with that and format the drive. Then load ME.
