  • How to format the “C” drive?

    I remember the old days, all I had to do was go to DOS type FORMAT C and it was that easy.

    Now I have Vista and don’t know how to do it?

    I was told “F11” at startup would let me, but I see no format option.

    I want to wipe the “C” drive clean and start from scratch. I tried to format it once via internet instructions. But I when I opened Properties the hard drive was still full.

    This is not a question why I want to format it; it is a question how to format the hard drive.

  • What is the term “Owned?”?

    What does it mean in the context of people getting hurt?

    I watch video where a kid was killed by a car and at the end of the video the words “Owned” showed up.

    Now every time I see this word in this contest in videos it looks like some immature coward is saying it or labeling it on others.

    This verbiage sounds like something a weak little mind would say because in real life they scared of other people
