How do I format a tablet laptop, that does not have a floppy of cd drive? I need the HD formatted so that I can sell it.
Any ideas?
 
Does it support a usb boot? If it does, make your usb key bootable and boot to it. It probably supports a network boot to, but thats a little more complicated.
 
that seems like to much work for me.....LOL....I think I might just borrow an external Cd drive and boot from that....
 
That is true.....I will def keep that in mind...
You know of any good data erasers that are downloadable? I need my data to be gone, dead, vanished. Since I am selling it.
 
dban is excellent, but it takes some time, up to 7 hours depending on the size and speed and how many passes you want make.

Well if you have a 2.5" HDD enclosure that would be the easiest; To format the HDD through another PC.

You planning to sell yours without OS installed? Any Tablet PC comes shipped with Windows XP Tablet PC edition... (And there should be a recovery disc)
Get a cheap USB CD-Rom
