L4D, for some reason and some how, I was told that you COULD NOT reformat your drive, that it was totally dead. I have a hard time understanding how a reformat would not resolve a software issue. I might be missing something though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Ted I know my Computer understand is limited, but i don't understand it either. All I know is he said that the hard drive could not be "Fixed".

It's removing the old OS on it and replacing with a new one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> That said, new hard drives are cheap. You shouldn't have had to replace the entire computer.

Yup I think that some information is missing here, just not sure what it is. All I know is that it was NOT this computer they had to replace.
