thanks kaau kaninyong tanan iv'e seen sa mga links and they're good...

ive tried re installing my drive with my prof sa c: instead.. and milagro ky pag usab nako og format sa drive (this time d: nah) ni format ra cya og iya with no problems at all.

i cannot explain... naa sd diay koy gi download nga Ranish Partition Manager Version 2.40.00 and tried formating clearing my c: with this... pro mao lagi na crush napud ang boot sys. (i think ang sys ky na nuon sa C: bisan nag install ko xp prof sa d: [nag libog ko.] )
i've solved the problem nah or did i..? pro im using c: na nuon instead of d: -gamay raman gud ang partition space nko sa c:

10g rah

>>thanks for all the help guys<<

more power!
