re: can't reformat the hard-drive Thursday, May 19, 2005 at 2:07 pm Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by DEX (11847 messages posted) Rob You are using a REAL win2k cd right ? and not bootleg copy right ? The BIOS is not a real control device so to speak it just reports what it sees or what you tell it to see then it will post it so the OS (win2k) can use that info to set the HD up,it will run all the items on a boot disk, if it needs to just like a boot disk,i.e.fdisk,format On Thursday, May 19, 2005 at 1:07 pm, rob wrote: >Thanks Adrian and DEX.
