Hi guys. got a windows 2000 issue thats bugging me.
I formatted a friends hard drive via an external H/D case plugged in by usb to my PC. after formatting and fdisk and all that, i wanted to install windows 2000 onto the drive. i thought i would have the option at some point for the installation to go onto the external drive, but i didn't get the option. windows began to install onto my PC's drive. Now, everytime i boot up, i get an option to either carry on with the install or boot in windows normally. i have deleted the temp folder with all the installation files in which will stop the install if i forget to change the option (install is the default), but now i need to get rid of the option appearing in the first place. short of reformatting myself, i don;t know what else to do.
can anyone help?
cheers
