I took the hard drive from a computer that has Windows
2000 on it. I want to use it to expand my existing
memory, but I can't format it because the computer won't
start if I plug it and configure it as primary hard drive
1. If I want to start the computer with it as the default
hard drive, I cant uninstall windows 2000 because it asks
for the password which I can't get. What can I do to
format it and use it in my computer?
