Need windows knowledge
Posted by Rick London on December 19th, 2003


Hi. I'm not real computer savvy and need some
advice. I am using Windows 98 and my software
has gotten screwy (missing files etc). I'd like
to wipe out everything on my hard drive and start
over. I have a windows 98 sec ed. disc now. I just
tried installing it but it didn't apparently overwrite
the other one. So now I figure I'll delete everything
and start over. Isn't there a command I can type
somewhere to delete everything? If you could help it
would be greatly appreciated. Email me at londonstimes@cablelynx.com
Thanks sincerely,

Rick

This newsgroup is for programmers of Windows, you would be better off asking
in a newsgroup for users of Win98.
