Reinstall ME
Hello,
I need to reinstall the operating system and need to know how to format my hard drive. Obviously, I am not a sophisticated user, but I have reinstalled ME before but can't remember how I formatted the hard drive. Any help is much appreciated. John |

John,
The information you are looking for are contained in the file CLEANHD.TXT which is in the Win 9x folder on the Win Me CD and also as KB271673 - "Windows Millennium Edition Cleanhd.txt File Contents" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=271673). See also KB255867 - "How to Use the Fdisk Tool and the Format Tool to Partition or Repartition a Hard Disk" (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=255867). -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP John M wrote: Hello, I need to reinstall the operating system and need to know how to format my hard drive.
