Ran into a bit of a problem. I have a IBM 60gig drive that I partitioned into 2 drives. C: drive that is about 5 gigs and D: drive that is about 55 gigs. Anyways I started installing my programs back on including nortan utilities which has its disk doctor program. Naturally being windows something locked up and I was forced to hit the reset button. And naturally disk doctor started to scan my drives to fix lost clusters etc. It went through drive c: no problems but when It tried to scan through drive D: it told me the drive wasnt configured right. The drive seems fine to me. Did I possibly do something wrong during fdisk that would make a scan disk not like it? Or is it something else? Anybody have any ideas?

Specs:

T-bird 1000
A7V Mobo
256megs or 133 ram
Geforce DDR 3d Prophet
IBM 60 gig HDD
SBL
2 NIC Cards

Can you post the exact error message it's giving you?

Yes, it's quite hard to analyze a problem like that.

Which version of Norton Utilities do you have? I had the same problem with Norton Utilities 95 if I'm not mistaken, and there's a patch to fix it on their website or through liveupdate.
