    Dell 910 reinstall help required
    « on: June 18, 2013, 01:09:21 PM »
    I did post thisthe other day but have not ad many responses maybe this forum would be moe appropriate
    I have been asked to look at a friends dell 910
    He tried to free up some space and theft he pc would not boot.
    He added the windows xl disk he had and tried a fresh install and it came up with windows setup blue screen.
    If you select install windows xp press enter.
    It now says unpartitioned space 39mb
    C: partition 1 7286mb 535mb free
    It will only allow me to create a 31mb partition and that's not enough space for the xp
    It won't let me delete c: as it contains temporary setup files .
    All original disks with an external cd rom rw

    How can I delete the c : and start again?
    Any help would be appreciated, there is no f11 and it only goes upto f10

    Many thanks
