Hey, my computer won't boot up and I need to get a new version of windows. The problem is that I have two hard drives full of data (don't need to get backed-up). Does windows automatically reformat both hard drives when I install a fresh version of windows media edition or is there another way to reformat?

It has to format, I don't think there's any other way to do it correctly if you're reinstalling especially a new version of windows.

Yes you will have the option to format when you install.But only the drive your installing Windows on.But when your done you can format the other drive.
