Help, Hard Drive Dead, Maybe
Do you lose hard drive space when you format? Maybe there's still some Linux partition on my hard drive that I didn't get rid of? I'm sure though I got rid of all the Linux partitions. There are two for Linux and I remember deleting two. Does it have anything to do with my Master Boot Record?

More premeditated Murder
Another option would be to try the suspect drive in some sort of USB setting: either a posh swanky USB case, or the cheap open power-supply-and-USB-to-IDE-cable thing.

I have a HP Pavillion 8240 with a Quantum 4 gig master drive, and a Western Digital 2 gig slave drive. During boot-up, when I enter setup, it reads the primary as a 4 gig drive also. I think somehow, my hard drive got partitioned, but I'm not sure how. Thanks for any help you can provide.

A Little Hard Drive Help Needed
If you have a proper Windows disk, you need to just wipe the hard drive in DOS and run the setup from the XP disk. I haven't tried it, but it should ask you for the other Windows disk to install XP. When I got XP I wiped everything on my hard drive through DOS and then done a clean install of Win 98 and then put on

DESPERATE! "OS/2 is unable to operate hard disk"
Now the really interesting stuff is what clueless people leave behind on their hard drives when they sell me a "broken" computer for $5. It is so bad and so embarrassing for me that all I do now is wipe the hard drive without even looking to see WHAT is on it. Yuck! Back in the mid-90s when I got my hand-held

If your drive crashes, then everything on the partition gets trashed, as opposed to the one particular "section" of the drive. I had a situation on an older hard drive of mine where 512 sectors decided they wanted to go bad, but the drive was fine otherwise. I simply partitioned those sectors off into their own

Your disk will more than likely still be under manufacutres warrentee, so yes, your best bet is to try where you got it from, failing that, look up the disk drive manufacture on the web, and get an rta for them. and post it off. If you are lucky, they will be in Oz, otherwise it will most likely be singapore.

OK, so I've got my 120gb external HD, USB. If I want to clone my C Drive, could I simply drag the icon of my C Drive into the icon of my external Drive? I'm assuming you can't do that for some Microsoft reason. That would result in two identical (?) hard drives, both bootable with a complete operating system?

Strangely, my system refused to boot from the hard drive. I couldn't figure this one out, and figured I'd have to format my hard drive, reinstall games, software, word processors, and, of course Doublespace (BTW, this is NOT a dblspace error, this happened to me before I got DOS 6.0, it's just that last time I DID

Re-installing xp
I went ahead and downloaded the updates and got windows up to par and started installing my software. Originally, I had planned to do the XP CD first. My old hard drive was 30 GB, and the new one is 160 GB, so I am quite satisfied with how much space it took. It also created a recovery disk.
