    Maybe we could try creating it? It wouldn't hurt....

    Copy and paste the following to Notepad and save it to your desktop as CSD.reg

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows]
    "CSDVersion "=dword:00000000


    Once saved to your desktop, double click on it to merge the info to your registry. Reboot and try again?

    At this point it's worth a shot......

    I don't know what You mean by w/e but if a full format never works, I personally would find out why.

    Did You try to remove the existing partition(s) and recreating prior to trying a full format?

    Yes, I always delete the partition and create a new one. But now i had to reformat AGAIN because I had 2 viruses, they somehow got through Norton Internet Security and Antivirus. And I still have th esame problem with windows update :-\.

    I'm sorry but I can't think of anything else. I don't understand why You're not being able to do a full format.
