Hi folks, it has come time to backup and wipe my PC.
I think/hope I have this covered.
This time around, I would like to partition the single 20gig drive into two 10gig drives (for many reasons, although not as good as two separate drives).
I have never done anything like this on a PC, and know nothing about DOS or BIOS stuff.
Can anyone help me with tips or thoughts on what I need to do to wipe/format/partition the computer before I reinstall the OS and other software?
I know this will probably not be fun and I may have to devote some hours to the task, but with the help of those who have done this I am hoping that I may speed things up somewhat.
The last thing I need is to get stuck once I have wiped my current setup and be left in the position of having to get a local PC guru in to get me out of trouble...or should I just pay someone to do all this for me? If on a Mac I would not need to pay someone, but PC's are a mystery to me. <g>
Regards,
Stephen Marsh.
