well ive never used ME. but if its anything like 98/xp then you just start to install windows. Then it will automatically reformat the C: drive or you can custom install and select "custom" and format them as you want. As for the chinese ive no idea.
Since it was made abundantly clear that I shouldn't bother trying to run XP on my old (second) PC, I would like to clean off the entire hard drive, reinstall Me and Office 2000. This computer will be for my girlfriends sister, who speaks only Chinese (I'm living in Hong Kong BTW), so I need to set up Chinese text input as well....help! What is the procedure? I tried to "Format Drive C" but I get a message that I cannot because Windows is using components on Drive C.
