AARRRRGGGGGGGgggg , Bugger , F*ck
I have nvr wasted a Saturday like i wasted last saturday, there was alot of niggles with my comp so i decided to format, i spent from 11am to 11 pm trying to do this traditionally simple task, fdisk.exe,format.exe all failed!!!
From a range of "Incorrect Ms-Dos Version" to "This drive cannot be formatted bcos it is still mounted, unmount y/n ......y..... Failed...". I used start-up disks from win xp ,win 98, win 2000 all to noo bloody avail grrrr!!! , when i did install xp pro i still noticed proggies from b4 and the boot-up time was still above 3 mins on a 2.2xp,512 ram etc. I formatted again, i thought cleaningly...........but i am now bk in the same position that i formatter for,an amazing long boot up time (3mins +)...i checked my msconfig ,pritty much clear, i thought it might be virus...thats why i formatted!!!!!!!!
Any help to fix this boot up prob would be amazingly,
greatfully,
fanatically appreciated!!
Thx Adam
