My computer had to be reformatted and I saved all my information to a flash drive. Now since it has been reformatted Microsoft Office is not on the computer. Is there a way I can bring up those documents from my flash drive since my computer doesn’t have microsoft Office?

Disk reformatting problems

Britinga — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 17:47:09 +0000

There is an older computer (3 ghz processor, 512 MB RAM, Win XP Pro) that was getting sluggish, so I decided to give the user a newer model and reformat the hard drive of this old one. It will not reformat, ending the process with a message that blocks are bad and the disk may be damaged. Fair enough, I have several spare drives exactly like the older one. But now EVERY drive I install and try to reformat brings up a blue screen – “A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer……STOP: 0X0000007B (0XF7C1F28, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X0000000)
Any ideas what the problem is? Is there a resource that will allow me to decipher the error message?
Thanks
