This would HAVE to be a joke...just like that guy that said he bought 2 x Panasonic Toughbooks a year and then he would shoot his old ones at the driving range!

re: Why is the computer broken?

I really suggest that if you formatted a drive that was working properly (No problems)and you havn't figured out why it's broke, that you take the PC to a reputable dealer and have them reload the OS (and have them disable the fomatting options for you).
I also presume that you made a full backup of your work before you formatted it? So take that along as well and have the dealer restore your data.

"My computer was working fine so I formatted the hard disk"
Surely your joking, why on earth would you do that?
There's an old saying, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
You will now have to start from scratch and reinstall everything.
If you don't have the recovery disks, you will need to purchase them from the maker of your pc.
You must have made a great effort to format your drive, as it can't be done from the operating system, you would have been warned that all data will be lost.

re: Why is the computer broken?

Yeah "WHY OH WHY" did you format the drive when it was all in perfect working order?. Sounds a little like a little blonde somewhere.

Stick to the old adage "IF IT AINT BROKEN DONT FIX IT"

When you do these things make sure you have disk with operating system at hand so you can re-install the operating system.
