I formatted my computer

Why?

 

A: It didn't free up space when I deleted 2 gigs of music after moving it to another computer.

 

B: Defrag didn't want to work...it's been 340 days since I've done that....

 

C: Everytime I'd load the comp, it would bring up 'openme.exe not found'

 

D: It just had to be done.

 

good thing now is that everything runs fast.....and not to worry, i've got all my precious stuff on cds....3 of them. I've got 10 gigs of free space on this now...

What kind of computer you got? I formatted my old HP computer. It had so much sh*t. It runs a lil better. I mostly use it for typing or whenever I cant get on the new Sony one upstairs.

I'm not sure the computer I'm on is CAPABLE of reformatting. I tried, and it didn't work. When this machine was first purchased, no one knew how to use it. It is messed up and disorganized beyond belief. There's probably about 2 gigabytes of "lost files", ones that I can't seem to find... but still take up precious space...

 

otherwise, some hacker is controlling my computer, and has some program hidden... he disabled a reformat, because it might bring up files he doesn't want me to see.

 

either way, i will be screaming with uncontainable joy when i finally get a new computer. not that i'll be able to afford new games for it... *collapses in tears*

 

PS> r15, have you mastered DOD yet?

DOS bootdisk, format C:

 

If you have a working computer, this will work. hell, if it's only like 15% working this will work. I mean, it only needs to power up for this to work.

i need to reinstall halflife, counterstrike, and day of defeat still.

 

i'll have these games on my computer by monday:

 

Soldier of Fortune II

Jedi Knight

Mysteries of the Sith

Half-Life

Delta Force

 

I might put Delta Force back on, since that annoying error messege most-likely won't show up anymore.

 

If I have more room, I'll load up a few of these:

 

Force Commander

Rebellion

Galactic Battlegrounds

Deus Ex

Unreal Tournament

X-Wing Alliance

 

I'll probably end up buying a new Hard Drive.

I've got a 15 and an 80 in my main box, and they're both stuffed full. Just enough for the page file on the 15, and the 80's got about 800MB free.

 

My server's 10 gig isn't doing much better... Only 3 gigs left.

My main comp has a 40GB and an 80GB, but niether one is anywhere near full.

 

My backup comp has a 2GB and a 40GB, the 2GB is pretty full, that's why I added the 40, which has been barely touched.

 

I GOTTA get these 2 networked together though,.. and soon!
