anyway, ive done it plenty f times just this time i dont know wtf happened...
my friends comp needed reformatting so i offered to do it...anyway
usually when i do it i reboot with the disk and go on about it that way
anyway
this time, i don tknow why, with windows loaded, i started installing windows on top of the one already installed, 2 copies if u may....anyway
it rebooted and started installing, then it bust out saying theres no room for it to install, altho theres 20 gigs left on C:drive..so it cancels and starts erasing the recent installation files..fine, i was gonna do it the way i always do it anyway, so it reboots, and comes back to trying to install windows..wont gimme anyother option..keep busting out that theres no room, even after it claims it has "removed previous installation files"
now when i boot F8, safe mode or previous working installment or whatever, it says one file is corrupted and i need to replace itbefore i can get into th ealready installed windows.. now i aint THAt good with comps so im stumpped...
i really need help removing or formatting all drives and starting the process all over..
sorry if it might seem a bit confusing, IT IS TO ME :( |

if it took him this long to try to format it could take longer to figure out how to get to a walmart. |
