in fact, you format the hard disk partition C, not the OS itself. partition C may be the only partition on your hard disk or one of some other partitions but still it is the home path in which your OS should be installed over.
when it comes to formatting, two major options are focused, FAT32 and/or NTFS. it is the way in which your partition stores the basic informations about the stored active files, e.g. FAT stands for: file allocation table. it is the table of contents of your partition, the contents are the file names stored, file locations, extensions, sizes and much more. the main reason behind creating such table of contents, is the easy search and indexing. NTFS is more accurate in defining a table of file attributes, for better access and higher compression and security. hth --- haresh patel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > hello! list members, > I know many of u are experts in hard ware or soft > ware. > please explain me how to format OS-XP. > what cares should be taken while formating C drive > only, > one thing I want to clear that during formation > there are options regarding to FS and Anty FS, > what mean by it? > thanking in advance > To unsubscribe send a message to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the > subject unsubscribe. > > To change your subscription to digest mode or make > any other changes, please visit the list home page > at > > http://accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/accessindia_accessindia.org.in > Wael Zakareya http://blindPlus.wordpress.com http://blindPlus.blogspot.com http://www.NGOEgypt.com skype: m0100649426 msn: [EMAIL PROTECTED] google: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mobile: 0100649426 ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
