I have just upgraded my motherboard, processor and graphics card. I am
using Win XP HE and am having problems partitioning and formatting the
secondary HDD. I manage to partition it normally by booting from a
floppy and running FDISK. I then go into Windows to format it NTFS and
after appearing to complete the format, it tells me that it was unable
to format the disk. The only difference for the disk is that its drive
letter has changed from F to D. If I go into FDISK again it tells me
that there are no partitions on the disk. Any help appreciated.
