Ok guys... reformatting question for ya.
My computer might be the most unstable ever! Crashes most of the time, oh how i love the windows blue error screen
Running Windows ME by the way (yes i know its shite, but thats the reboot cd i got with the computer) (dont buy a TIME computer by the way!)
Whats the best way to flatten my hard disk, wiping EVERYTHING! so that i can reboot the pc with either a new OS or use the emergency boot cd again (for the 40th time i think)
Ive tried a few things before.. ends up the same result.
Thoughts?

Its not hard, depending on disk might take a while.
IF you were running 2k, i wouldnt even have botherd telling you to run format.
if you need to fk about with partitions, fdisk it
