Formatting NTFS from DOS

belveder
Hi, can someone please tell me a way of formatting my C partition (NTFS) that I have XP Pro on from DOS. I have noticed that using the XP disk doesn't do a thorough job and sometimes leaves bugs behind that caused the format in the first place.

After installing SP2 comp will no longer boot up

ShauNotDeaD
I got the problem that hundreds of other people have gotten: after installing SP2, my computer would stall out at the blue windows XP screen right before the login screen comes up. I looked this problem up on Microsoft's website and found it well documented and a solution was provided.

Windows XP SP2 install and configuration problems - HELP

johnnyutah97
I installed SP2 yesterday on my IBM Thinkpad T40. Although it appeared to install without issues, after giving my system a once over I've noticed the following issues: 1) System initially was missing the start menu and taskbar at the bottom of the screen, this rectified itself after rebooting the system twice.

DirectX and SP2 problems

thirty4
I was reading the posts that said if DirectX would not download to just reinstall SP2. I went to the microsoft website to do this, but I keep getting an error message from ActiveX that says Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page.

Broswer is sending NULL Domain name

sloke1
We are trying to implement Windows integrated authentication using NTLM v2. 0 for all HTTP traffic. Every thing is working fine when the system is logged in to the domain. But when the system is not logged into the domain, Firewall gives us a challenge window and asks for the username, password and domain name.

W2K IRQ issues

TinyHeathen75
:x I just had a new system put together. I have been running 2k as an upgrade on my old system without problems for a few years. As a full install on the new system though, it is leaving something to be desired.

Harddrive disappearing

Masterfinn
I recently put in a second harddrive into one of my systems as a spare. It is a 60gig Maxtor. The bios finds the drive no problem and windows sees it fine as well. I formated the drive and i now use it to store files.
