I have partitioned HDs a hundred times. I have this New Seagate 160gb 7200 IDE HD. Using an fdisk I can't get a 160gb partition. It comes up with 21223mb after I create the partition. I looked in the BIOS and it is lists a 160GB HD.... The jumper on the HD is set for Master. What am I over looking? Any Ideas?
Thanks in advance, Derek

My computer uses 1.5A-load, .8A-idle, .65A-standby, .05A-turned off on 125V. "The spaces between your fingers were created so that another's could fill them in."
Dunno, as long as the Windows disc can load file onto the hard drive, it can run a primitive Windows/DOS function and you can see if that works.
