A while ago I did the whole restore-my-comp-back-to-square-one procedure and erased my harddrive and tried to start anew. But somehow I jagged it and since then whenever I restart my computer, I'm confronted with a dos screen that asks which Microsoft Windows partition I want to start with. This alone isn't a problem but I know that it means some things from the last harddrive are left over. Upon further investigation I found all sorts of items from My Documents folder that I wish had been deleted.
Aside from manually going into the old harddrive folders and deleting these things myself, what can I do to keep all the data on my current desired partition (which i use every day) and delete the rest that should have been deleted long ago, or....just back up what I have now on my comp that i want to save and THEN do another complete system restore that won't leave anything behind this time?
