I've recently purchased a new computer and want to format the old one.
there are several reasons for this but mainly because i want my 8 yr old son to have it so he can learn the ways of the P.C.
But, I cant format!
If i try going through the setup screen upon bootup there is a password that i don't know, and if i try formating in windows i get the message, unable to format.
I've bought a new windows XP OS, and some extra ram because the p.c is quite old so all i need is to format so he can have a fresh p.c to do what he wants with.
Spec:
Intel celeron processor
trident video card
lg cd rom
56k modem !wow!
wdc 20 gb hard drive
windows xp
Any suggestions kindly welcome
I do need to format because it runs very very slow
