Formatting while reinstalling Windows 7
I did not know Windows 7 installation only allowed a quick format (not full format). Since my hard drives are about a year old, I wanted to do a full format. I wish Windows warned about this for more tech savvy users.
Now that I have already done a quick format with Windows 7 installation, should I worry about any bad sectors?
What if I have bad sectors during a chkdsk scan? Should I do the format all over again?
What if I DONT have bad sectors during a chkdsk scan? Will I be fine?
