Formating Harddrive

What you have to do:

1. Make sure your CD-ROM is set to first boot device, before the hard drive.
2. Put in the recovery CD and start your comp up.
3. When it says "Press any key to boot from disk" press a key.
4. Follow the instructions. Im going to format a comp sometime within the next 2 hours, so i'll post step by step if you need it.

Im pretty sure the recovery CD's work the same as the Windows CD. It all depends on the actual CD, but generally they do.

 

How To Format A Write Protected Flash Memory ?

¿You already tried this one?...

Run CMD

Then in the 3º step, put the correct number of disk in the list for the usb flash (if it's listed in disk 3, then you'll have to write select disk 3).

2. select disk #
3. clean
4. create partition primary
5. select partition 1
6. active
7. format fs=fat32
8. assign

with that commands you will format the flash drive in fat32, if you have a large drive you can select also "format fs=ntfs" in step 7.

good luck!

 

Cancelled format of a harddrive

I was recently in the process of formatting an external harddrive with the built-in windows 10 function (through right clicking) but i was forced to cancel it because of an impending exam... Now windows is unable to interact with or re-format the drive
to a working state, i have tried multiple times but it fails every time and my computer refuses to interact with the drive.

Is there any way to get my harddrive working again?
