    Formatting Question

    I have 2 hard drives but if I format the C:/ when I reinstall windows will it automatically find my secondary drive or would I have to do something for it to find it?

    as long as it appears in the BIOS - it'll be fine.

    just make sure you format the right one.

    XP setup will do it all for you easy. Delete the old partition on the old drive, create a new one, quick format it and you're away :up:
