Hi there!
I got myself into a bind
After upgrading my MB, the vista install i was running on a Seagate 250 gig HDD failed to load, and this was a dual boot with 2k on a WD 40 gig HDD
So i trashed the 2k install (was planing on doing so anyway), formated the WD , installed Vista clean on it, now would like to trash the windows folder on the Seagate drive to free up room. I have succeeded in trashing some of the folders and files, but am left with 6.18gig of the folder.
With both UAC on and off, it will fail with "You need permission to perform this action"
Yep im admin on this install.
I tried using MoveOnBoot to delete the folder and files. no dice tho.
So, at this point, i have a clean install on 1 drive and on the 2nd a partial install, having removed the users folder and bits an pieces out of the windows folder.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Darc
