Hi Patrick.

I'm not sure what you are trying to do?

Why have you removed the HD's and stuck them in another computer?

If you just want to wipe the HD start the computer up with a boot disk with Format.com 
on it. Once it starts up just type Format C: /s

If you wanted to save some of the files first you should have done that while they 
were still connected to the old computer.

When you talk about missing files are you talking about your pastors missing files 
or the OS system files?

To put the system files back check that you have Sys.com on the boot disk. If not 
copy it from Windows\Command folder to the boot disk.

Start the computer up with the boot disk inserted after you have told the BIOS to 
boot from floppy first. The just type sys c: this will put the system/startup 
files back on the HD.
