I have to reformat my hard drive and reinstall everything. I believe there is a worm
or boot v****s on my pc. And the only way I know of to rid it is do the complete
format.
I have a few books with information about formatting but hoped to make sure I do the
right thing in formatting it. This is the best list online I know of and so thought I
would see if anyone would have better advise for me. I have one drive and use win98.
I have everything backed up to a cd.
The computer runs very well when not online. Online I get disconnected and IE runs
very very slow. I have been trying to decide what to do for sometime and believe the
only solution is to format and start over. I was running Norton 2003 along with the
security wall but feel sometimes it causes more problems than worth it. I know I
should get it back on but have been trying to decide what to do. Taking it off did
help browsing online run faster for awhile but it now seems to be slow again.
The biggest thing I am not sure of is how to do a complete hard drive format to erase
everything. Will this work it there is a boot v***s. Or is there something else I need
to do. When I run online scanners from Norton, etc. they always say everything is
okay.
Thank you in advance, Sandy
