I changed my primary email address but Y! Answers keeps sending mail to my old address?
Yesterday I went to 'my activity' in Y! Answers, and saw that an old email address was still used. I clicked the 'manage email addresses' link, added a new address, deleted the old one, and saved it. When I go back to 'manage email addresses' the old address is gone and the new one is there. But if I go to my profile directly, the old email address is still there, and I've been voted 'best answer' three times since and the Y! notifications were still sent to my old addy, which I deleted! What went wrong?
1 AnswerYahoo Answers10 years agoHow can I format the hard disk when the laptop screen doesn't work?
I have a fairly new laptop and fell onto the screen. About 80% of it is now black, the rest are just blue lines. Insurance won't cover it, and replacement screen is 800 dollars. So I am now thinking about stripping the laptop and selling the parts.
In order to do this, I'd like to wipe/format the hard disk, but without a functioning screen, I can't do it. Also, this laptop does not have a floppy or CD-ROM drive...
Does anyone have a clue how I can format the disk? Thanks!
