Grab a DOS bootdisk and fdisk.

[drka]

[Newby]

God damn, how much more can you suck at life?

It's called Google.

You can answer all of those questions easily with Google!

This is why you shouldn't drink. It turns you into a retard.

[Newby]

Apparently you have.

"Use a DOS bookdisk and fdisk."

He wants you to fdisk from a DOS bootdisk.

Put it into salt water and run wires from a car battery into it... while your at it... stick your finger in.

format c:
deltree *.* (I think that's right... haven't used DOS in a long while)

[drka]

and where would i get a DOS Bootdisk

and if i can make one, how would i do it

@Ergot:ummm wouldnt that just delete every file on the HD

[Ergot]

Yes...

does anyone know how i can delete one?

Unless you want me to interpret it as deleting from the universe... then grab a ray gun or something.

I just use DiskZapper

:-\  I use a disk wiper.  Loops through the whole disk writing 0's, sure everything can be recovered but you get a clean HD. :)
