Re: [JAWS-Users] Best Way To Wipe My C Drive
I would just format the drive during install. The Windows installer will offer a format of the drive when doing a fresh install. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Best Way To Wipe My C Drive
use Darik's Boot and Nuke before doing a full format. You will need sighted help to get dBAN started but doing so will completely wipe the HD. a format simply prepares the HD for software. - Original Message - From: "Mike B."
