    How to Format your Hard Drive using windows xp and Vista

    • Tweet
    • Tweet

    Before the format process, you want to make sure that if your goal is hard drive recovery, you back up as much personal data and information from your hard drive as you need. In some instances where a virus has caused serious system damage, this may not be possible, but if your format is planned ahead of time you certainly can copy and archive data off your hard drive before you start the format process.

      because if you run the xp or win 7 installation cd/dvd it will probably be listed there.
      or check the BIOS see if is listed there.

      [..YouTube..] @DaveInBridport hi, you wont find anithing because you can’t install an older OS with a newer OS already installed.what you need to do is is remove all OS already installed and start installing them older to newer sample:win 95 then 98 then win 200 then win Xp then WIN 7.
      in your case would be first install win 95 on a fat 32 partition then install win XP on FAT 32 so you can share files between them.

      [..YouTube..] so if I am installing an secondary, third or forth hard drive I would always make it extended partition instead of a Primary Partition?
      Do you only use Primary for the Operating Systems Hard Drive?

      [..YouTube..] I came across an old Maxtor 60 gig. It was formatted to only allow 32 gigs. After spending an hour chasing dead end, I watched your video. Drive was reformatting about 90 seconds later. 58 usable gigs!

      I had a drive just die and then dropped an external portable drive. Now, I’m paranoid about backups!

      If you care about anything you must have 3 copies! I understand dead drive recovery is above 90% successful.

      Many thanks!
