I own a Dell Home Computer and have tried to clean install Windows 2000 Professional. Despite continued reformatting of hard drive (with help of computer consultant
friends), I still get various problems (problems with svchost.exe, continued presence of Welch and other viruses). I would like to know how to reformat my
hard drive ENTIRELY. Thank you for any help you may give.
