hi hp,

i just don't have the know-how to guide you through formatting a hard drive, and i don't know on a new install of win95 what gets regenerated. i'm still running two puters that had os's pre-loaded at the factory. i have been told that it is advisable to format the hard drive from time to time.

i'd like to comment on your remark that "they got mad and ordered a new computer from Gateway." that's incredible, given the level of tech help they seem to have received from that manufacturer. and not to pick on your b-i-l, but what a bummer reason to buy a new system... "getting mad". <g3>

wish i could help you out, hp. i mostly hang out here to learn myself!

:)
