my c:/ is fucked up!! - GoFuckYourself.com

xlogger · 03-25-2005, 08:36 AM

Ok any one know how to completly delete everything in the C:/ and start fresh? I, rite now have like 700mb of space left there. And i dont understand where the how the hell i am using up all this space. I movied the whole c:/ to my e:/ (external drive). I keep nothing in the c:/ still i dont have space.

I tried to put the xp cd and delete it but it said something like 'cant delete this drive because it has settings needed for windows'.

Anyone has this same problem??

I have to start fresh or get a new computer.

Hate to say but Format C will probably do the trick.

boot from the xp cd and do a fresh install

O_o maybe you just need to scandisk and defrag it, probably just reporting wrong I've had my drives do that with up to 3 gigs of badly reported stuff

Well fuck it! I am going to do a fresh install! See you all in 5 hours.

Yeah.. umm you can't just move everything on C -> E as you installed windows to C, and it needs to stay there, you can move pretty much everything apart from Program Files, Windows & Documents & Settings across.. but the rest is needed to keep your pc and programs running smooth.

put cd in, when it says to boot from cd hit a key. follow the steps through.
