Hello there, today at ugoxy am going to be giving you a tutorial on how to format your windows PC. You might be having some issues with your windows PC which most of the time might be virus related and might require you to remove every file in the system. To do so, you will have to format the entire system.
Formatting a computer system doesn't require much, all you need to do is to follow the steps below and you should be able to format your windows PC.
HOW TO FORMAT ANY WINDOWS PC.
>> BACKUP YOUR DATA: When you format a computer, you will lose all of your files and data. The programs can be backed up; they will need to be reinstalled.
You can use DVDs, CDs, external hard drives, flash drives, or the cloud, depending on how much data you have to backup.
>> SET YOUR BIOS TO BOOT FROM CD: To do this, restart the computer and enter the setup screen when the manufacturer logo appears.
See:
>>HOW TO BOOT ANY PC INTO BIOS SETUP UTILITY
Once
in the BIOS menu, select the Boot menu. Change the order of
devices so that your computer boots from CD before booting from
the hard drive. Save your changes and exit. Your computer will restart. If you
are installing from a flash drive, then you will need to set the BIOS to boot
from removable storage.
>> BEGIN SETUP: If the CD has been inserted and the BIOS is set correctly, you will see a message asking you to “Press any key to boot from CD…” Press a key on the keyboard and the setup process for Windows 7 will launch.
NOTE: Your system may automatically launch the
setup program without asking you to press any key.

>> CHOOSE YOUR PREFERENCES: You will be prompted to confirm your Language, Time &
Currency format, and Keyboard or input method. Select the appropriate options
for you and click Next.
>> CLICK INSTALL NOW: Do not click Repair Computer, even if you are
repairing a computer by reinstalling Windows. Once clicked, Setup will begin
loading the files it needs to continue.
>> READ AND ACCEPT THE TERMS: In order to advance, you
must indicate that you have read and agree to Microsoft’s terms of use.
>> CHOOSE CUSTOM INSTALL: This will allow you to
perform a clean installation if you decide to install a new Operating System
after formatting. Formatting the computer means wiping it of all the data that
is on it, so you will be performing a clean installation, so that you will be
given the option to erase the disk.
>> FORMAT MAIN PARTITION: A window will open
asking where you would like to install Windows. In order to perform a clean
install, you need to delete the old partition and format the main system
partition (it is usually bigger in size) and start with a clean slate. Click “Drive
options (advanced).”
This will give you the ability to delete and create
partitions.
Select
the partition of your existing operating system and click the Delete button. Select the hard disk from
the options and then click format.
>>From here, if you wish to install a new Operating System you can now go ahead. Or if you just want to format the hard disk then at this point you are done. Congratulations, you have successfully formatted your PC.
