Hi mark, how are you?

I was wondering if someone on this thread could help me...I have a older second computer and its so glommed up (gg, my terminology)that it's virtually useless. What I want to do with it, is wipe the hard drive completely clean, then upgrade the memory, it only has 32mg of ram, which might be why it's so glommed up..LOL

Could someone please tell me how to do this, is there a program I can use to clean it up or do I have to take it to a computer shop?

I don't care about losing the stuff on it, because I've backed up anything of value there. I would hate to just discard it, it seems like a waste....oh its a P166 I think..Just deleting stuff doesn't seem to help and I'm sure some of the windows files is corrupted..I will also upgrade to Win98 after I have it cleaned up.

Thanks, I appreciate any help I can get with this..

gyp

ROFLMAO! No offense to those who would fall for it, but considering all the press the ILOVEYOU virus has received, anyone who deliberately runs a script attachment to an email is asking for it. :)
