Hi, I have a Dell5100 - Windows XP Pro is really playing up. After
reinstalling from the "reinstallation CD" got from Dell but without
reformatting, then trying to use the repair routine, still got many problems
and can't install ie7 etc so have decided to reformat Drive C and do a clean
install. Bit nervous - can you help? I don't want any of the Dell stuff,
just a clean machine!
Confusing screen when I try new vXP installg from the CD - my "C" drive
appears to be split in 3 ...
-: Partition 1 (fat) 63mb
C: Partition 2 (NTFS) 149,000mb
N: Partition 3 (Fat32) 2965mb
What do I do from here - there is no N partition that I can see when I go
into my wobbly Windows - worried that it might contain something I don't
want to lose?
Should I just reformat the C drive from somewhere else?
Sorry to be a bit dim....
