SOURCE: I bought the Canvio Plus

Hello,

During the process of removing the back up and other software, it is possible that you have removed the software that is useful for the canivio plus 1 TB portable drive and that is why it is displaying virtually all the hard drive bad.

I advice you return it to best buy and complain that the hard drive is malfunctioning, since it is just yesterday you bought it, it should be replaced.

Note, while setting it up, be very careful not delete any important software that might be useful to you.

Take care.

SOURCE: Can't format HDD

The best partitioning is from windows xp setup disk , and also the best format .
Why get to format and loose all your files when you can backup your as many times as you can and keep them safe ?
I am using http://www.dmailer.com/dmailer-backup.html and i formatted my computer like 2 times in 1 year and it didn't taked more than 20 minutes to reinstal it and restore the backup

SOURCE: i want to format m y hard drive but dosn't work i

Hello

Go down to the bottom left, hit your windows button and click run
In the box that comes up type CMD

this will bring up a BLACK BOX with a blinking cursor

then you type FORMAT followed by the drive letter you want to format.

so if your drive name is E: then you would type FORMAT E:

If you type format C: you will get an error *Probably* because windows is running on that drive.

Best of luck

SOURCE: i format the hard disk

click start control panel administrive tools computer management then select event viewer depending on what operating sytem you have this may vary
extend the events there you will see errors in red you will no what exactly what the error was and at what time it occured until you know what the problem is you cant fix it
you might not have administrator rights to format your hard drive
click start control panel user accounts on the users tab,click the name of the computer administrator you must have full control
hope this helps
