Hi all, wanted to ask you if the FDisk format erases EVERYTHING that is on my HDD (so all that shit IE and Outlook history files dissapear)?

If you remove every partition in fdisk, then yes, it will all be gone.

MrX:
no, all fdisk and format does is write free space to your hdd, making it super easy to recover any shit you have on there. get this:

do a full format option.

here is how to kill a win98 installation in under 30 seconds or less:
upon booting up, hold down F8
choose command promt only
type:
deltree c:\ /y
and then half way thru, reset the computer, and the hdd will be fsked and it will display 'invalid boot disk ... '

Giorgi:
MrX,
That method that u gave here, it removes all logical drives etc? So after that i just run Fdisk and re-create all the drives?

 How the hell are you supposed to run Windows 98 when all the partitions are removed? ;)
