3. If it does then your laughin, if you not you will require a w2k boot disk, thats 1.44 floppy. presume you dont need it goto next step
4. Back all your Video drivers , VGA Drivers , Etc onto cd'S
5. Double check you have backed everything up, coz your PC is going Bye Bye.
6. Boot your PC up press F8 to goto Command Prompt, run FDISK.exe from c:\fdisk.exe , should open a DOS terminal, just press Y,
then goto Remove Partition , delete your old partition the one you want to format. if you can't find it press option 4, and view partions.
once all removed, your Hard Disk drive is now ready for Partioning, here you can have 2 x15GB drive or 1x 30GB drive, or 3x10Gb drives
totally upto you. reboot your PC, to make changes,
7. Enter Floppy Disk the one created and goto A:\. C:\ will not exist anymore ! , from A:\ run Fisk Again, then goto create partition , then select
the size you want and how many , once created the partition, reboot, with the floppy disk , and goto A:\ Again, now you will require to format C:\
just type a:\format c:\ and press yes. the process should take around 10mins. press ok on volume label , then reboot your PC.
8. Enter the BIOS, and select CDROM for first boot choice, enter W2K, make sure you have the serial., press f10 for BIOS changes and reboot.
9. Welcome to W2K installation, complete that. and then your back up and running.
10. Goto tranceaddict.com :0


Hey, thanks for the detail steps. Really appreciate it. But is it necessary that I make Fdisk.exe and Format.com? I have ally my drivers on Cdroms. So basicly I just want to format the drive clean and reinstall driver. And Yes step 10 is a must
