Quinn Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 Boot up a windows CD if you have one, it should allow you to format the hard drive. If you don't have one, download a live CD like Knoppix (Linux), burn it to a disk, and use Gparted to format the HDD (for file system make sure you use NTFS) (Not recommended unless you know Linux) 1
