how to Full/quick format on windows 7 installation

Hello and welcome creepted mate I am wondering if you have access to a second machine you can wipe the drive and format it with? Or if you have an OS already running then install the new drive and format it from that. Then remove the old drive instal;l and wipe the first drive to use as a back up drive.
Thats what I would do anyway.

Hi,

You need to choose the 'Custom (advanced)' option during installation.

Refer to steps 6, 7 and 8 in this tutorial:
Clean Install Windows 7

Yep gridlock

Creepted,

When you select an unallocated disk and click on Next, Windows will automatically format it for you. There's no need to do a full format to reinstall Windows.

If you really wanted to, then you could use the "Clean" or "Clean all" command at boot, and do the above afterwards to do so.
