Two Parter.
My computer had the same error it had before... all my drivers are updated (Mobo, vid card, sound card, monitor), as are my games. All play perfectly. Playing Need For Speed Carbon today, and it starts getting wierd graphic errors, need to manually restart it with the button. Now, its got the error it had before, wont start in normal / safe mode, or any mode.
Putting in a WinXP CD gives me the error I should check my memory, or video card / video card adapter. The shop said the hardware set up is perfect, nothing to worry about.
What is this problem ? So far, 20-25 days within putting WinXP on this computer, it gets the same errors. Windows won't boot, or will give me a disk read error. Sometimes it restarts itself booting up. Putting in a winxp doesnt even give me a menu, it just loads files and then gives me the error message.
Second Part
How do I reformat winXP if I cant select the option from the WinXP CD menu ? Cant find a dos prompt to - format C:
