Im gonna attempt a fresh re-install tonight. Reformat the drives and everything. I was wondering though... Since I have 2 HD's will it repartition both of them? My 2nd HD is all messed up partition wise. Will I have to repartition before I start the install process?



Any other tips or tricks are welcome. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

It's pretty much up to you, you can format them and start over, you can keep one and format the other. it's all your call pretty much.

Well I want to reformat both, but I meant to ask will it only do the one with system files on it?

You can setup the drives in the windows install screen, you can format them both or whatever.

It will not reformat them both at the same time...you have to repartition/reformat each drive individually.

Haha, I'm sure you have it figured out.



I just finished putting together and installing software on my comp for college, and today I read a fix to allow me to install SP1 with XP...so I know someone with a legit copy of XP Pro (unlike my ghetto ****) and I'm gonna have to do it all over again...
