Format to FAT32?

[Jordan L.]

Ok.
Wolskie and I have managed to fix the problem.

For those that do no understand what happened, I can finally explain because I know exactly what happened.
It all started like this:

• I, wanting to be adventurous install Mac OS X onto my Intel PC. (Also known as a Hackintosh.)
  
• After I decided to switch back, I tried taking off Mac by simple installing Windows and 'deleting the partition of Mac', or so I though.
  
• It turns out that Mac keep the Harddrive on HFS (or whatever the Mac format is) and only Cross it with NTFS or EXT4 etc, which means that nothing will work because of the Mac format still being on there.
  
• So pretty much, just install Windows 7 or something will not undo the Format from Mac, but just 'go over the top of it.'
  
• We managed to fix it by Zero-ing out the Harddrive.
  

I hope that makes it easier to understand what my problem was?
