Title: Bloom or anyone OS/HDD questions
Post by: JBA on August 28, 2003, 09:48:39 AM

First I'm insatalling a new Hard drive Maxtor 80GB 7200RPM ATA/133 8.5ms 2MB and OS XP home in my system.

I have backed up all files I need/want. Is there any advice/tricks I should be aware of to do this right.

secondaly may old HD has ended up with TWO copies OS 2000 perfessional on it, not sure how? taking up alot of space. If I want to use this drive for extra storage how do I delet them?

Thanks JBA

If you don't want to keep anything on the drive just format it and it will be clean.
