Format

I'am trying to format my C Drive but everytime i try to format this message come out

Window cannot format this drive. Quit any Disk Utiliies or other programs that are using, and make sure that no window is displaying the content of the drive. Than try formatting again.

But i did not run any program at that time so why cant i format it ??

 

So there is nothing i can do ??

 

Boot Disk ???

Is it something i buy or something i download

 

Hmmmm.. ok thanks anyway

 

Hey PhantomKid. If you don't have a copy of the operating system, don't format your C Drive. because once you format your C drive, you cannot boot into it any longer. All your settings, programs, data, etc. will be gone.

 

That's kind of obvious, everyone knows that. I hope..

 

I am just reminding phantom just incase. not everyone knows 1+1=2. Everyone have to start from somewhere. because he doesn't seems to know what's a bootdisk is (he asked about buying it). So I just want to make sure and save him from all the trouble.

 

Yes i know at least that much and you spell my name wrong. Almost everyone spell my name wrongly

 

do you mean reinstall your windows? :-\ :-\ :-\

 

that's naive to think that way and jacoblam365 sees what i see.
not everyone is computer literate and not everyone can understand it.
anyway, don't format [delete] your computer unless you own an operating system [windows xp, vista, etc...].

 

Why do you want to format C: in the first place? Reinstall Windows or something?
