I don't think you fully understand what you're doing when you format.Originally posted by Chewie UK+10 August 2004 - 13:57--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td>QUOTE (Chewie UK @ 10 August 2004 - 13:57)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'> <!--QuoteBegin-brucelee21@10 August 2004 - 07:27
i'll try reformatting again...but my antivirus has 5 w32sasser.c worms quarantined. Should I worry about these? How/should I remove these before I format?
Formatting a hard drive completely wipes off all data on it. Every file that you see on your hard drive, be it a picture, an mp3, a movie or a word document, will be gone after you format.
To get any files back that you wiped by mistake will require software specific to the purpose, and results are not guaranteed. [/b][/quote]
well put, or you could just burn them to cd before you format for backup purposes.
