Actually, that might be a BAD idea, confusertech. I'm sure the program works great, but first, we should probably make sure that formatting is what (he) actually wants/needs to do.
Ralph55: What kind of computer are you using? Dell, HP, Gateway, or was it a custom build? What OS do you have and what kind of restore software are you using (like system restore CDs or a Windows XP install CD)? Are you sure you want to reformat your system's main hard drive, or are you having another issue?
(Let's not jump the gun and tell (him) to kill (his) hard drive until we know more. Not everyone that comes here is as up on the tech as we are. :) )

Ralph55, did you ever get your problem resolved? If so, please let me know what happened and mark the thread as "solved" (there's a link below the last post). If not, please let me know what you tried so I can try again.

Just YOU, or the rest of us?
