[gizzmo]

iam running on critical space on my c drive. at about 400-500mbs. lol. my d drive has 45 gigs. is there any way to reformat my hd without screwing with my internet settings. my little sister polluted my c drive by downloading mp3,movies,and some other junk and didnt know shit bout viruses on kazaa. i was stuck with 3 virus and deleted and cleaned them with norton successfully, but the stole all my 14.5 gigs on my c drive . if this is a newbish question iam sorry, iam only 13 yrs old and still a newb to all this reformatin shit.

reformatting will delete everything.. you will need to instaill windows and start over if that is ur system disk,

if u dont know how. i would sujest moving the shit on the other hdd but if u have 400-500mb fee thats enough for ur comp to work properly. and u can just install stuff on the other hdd if u need to.

Did ya get a recovery disc with ya comp?

I was gonna ask same question as Nik-Cexy

Did you split the drives in 2, or do you physically have 2 harddrives?
