any pc geeks who can give me some advice ? - 16th Dec 2009 4:24am
i have a hp desktop pc which recently crashed due to a bad sector error ( i think that was the message ). anyway a friend tried to repair it for me and now i cant access the hard drive at all. since it had 2 hard drives i have installed the o/s on the second drive (d) and transfered all the docs across to that. i have tried to format the original ( c ) drive so i can reinstall my o/s on that but it will not let me. the c drive has 2 partitions on one of which is a recovery drive (e)and i think this may be the reason it wont format. can anyone offer any advice on what to do.
ps i'm sure this is something simple but as i have never had any computer training i'm shooting in the dark if i try anything
