I doubt you have Windows installed over the 11 partitions. In fact, your setup makes it EASIER to reformat. Just backup and wipe the windows partition, and leave the other ones alone.
Now on the other hand, if you had one 80gb partition, then you'd be hosed because you'd have to reformat the entire thing. On a separate note, if you did need to backup 80 gigs, IMHO the best solution is to buy a 20 or 40 gig drive, backup the stuff you need and then blast the 80 gig. Cheaper then 2,000 CD-R's, and faster too. david -----Original Message----- From: Philip (Fiber) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, March 23, 2002 5:05 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlcoders] [OT] Compiling the SDk I am already aware of the MS demons inside my PC, but read my last post. Good luck getting me to reformat, I got 80gigs (on 11 partitions) of stuff with the only back-up medium being CD-R's (how screwed I am if something trashes my HDD). Maybe I should get some sort of backup system, hmmmm, a DVD-RAM could double as a backup drive AND a DVD-burner. ;) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of botman Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 10:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlcoders] [OT] Compiling the SDk > Specifically the errors go like this - > > LINK : fatal error LNK2023: bad dll or entry point > 'msobj10.dll'!'?FCreateReader@IDebugSSectionReader@@SA_NPAEIPAPAV1@K@Z' > Error executing link.exe. Dude! You've got demons or something inside your PC. :) Uninstall and reinstall MSVC or (even better), reformat your hard disk and reinstall Windows and all your apps again.
