Very helpful for those who don't know how to format. LoL I haven't used a floppy disk for years, flash drives FTW!  Also depending on the size of your flash drive you may want to use NTFS instead of FAT. The maximum file size that can be stored on a FAT drive is 4GB, where as NTFS is unlimited.

Even I haven't used floppies since ages! Most flash drives don't have more than 4GB capacity. So no question of NTFS here. I tried formatting my transcend JetFlash and I gave me these two options: FAT or FAT32 What is the difference between the two. Also I would like to know the difference between a normal format and a quick format. The quick format is really very quick! Update: I did some googling myself and came to the conclusion that when you run a normal format, it deletes all your files and check the entire disc for bad errors. But when you try to quick format it, it does not check for those bad sectors. Checking for bad sectors takes up most of the time. therefore it can take even longer if the disc actually has bad sectors! It is advisible to check your dissc for bad sectors once in a while if you had earlier used quick format. If you instaled WindowsXP on a partition that was formatted by using the Quick format option, you can also check your disk by using the chkdsk /r command after the installation of WindowsXP is completed.

Trap Feedbacker, What are you trying to format? Without that information, I can't really help you. Keep in mind that this is a 2 year old topic

Get Back Lots Of Disk Space
Windows XP/Vista MCE (Media Centre Edition) (7) So, some of you might know about this already but, anyways... The other day I was trying to install
a game but did not have the necessary disk space, so I deleted files that I will not use, and other
files that I do not need... I compressed some files that I might use later in the future... And just
doing that got me back around two to three gigabytes of free hard disk space... But that's not
enough, the game needed 6 gigabytes of free disk space! So what did I do next? I ran CCleaner...
It took a while yes, but soon it free'd another 2 gigabytes... ARRGH&....

Using An Actionscript In Flash For Loops

won't form a problem, but what if you wanted to attach a lot more clips? It would be impossible
to set them up piece by piece. It would take hours of coding the same code over and over again and
that redundancy is something you could really do without, not even talking about the time you are
loosing. This is where loops come into action. We have a few different ones to our d....
