A friend of mine wanted to install a new hard drive in his system.
So he bought a brandnew harddrive and started installing.
1st he fdisk the disk making a primary dos partition
2nd he format the drive
after formating he started installing windows ME but he always got an error that he had some file missing. So i told him to bring over the machine.
I did the same thing
I Fdisked the drive for a primary dos partition then reset the computer and then format the C:\ first it format the whole drive but reset itself automaticly which i thought was odd because it did not give me a choice to lable the drive as it should...
so i tried installing winME again and it did the same problem saying that it did not find the file...
so i did the same thing over fdisk and fromat but this time it stoped at ahout 11% and just hung...
I am thinking it either the harddrive or a boot virus..
so i had him exchange the hard drive and it did the same thing..
So is this a boot virus or somthing else?
