Alright, im stumped.......
So heres the deal.....
I bought a new hard drive for my other computer, and it works ok.... The computer will not boot this drive, and when i go to setup disk partitions, it wont let me partition it (saying like there is no space)....
There were 2 partitions, a non DOS partition and something like a NHHA or something like that (began with an N I think)..... Anyway, i deleted those and now it wont let me create a new partition...... It gets up to about 6% when it says verifying drive integrity, and starts over, does this for about 10 mins and says there is no space available.....
Cna someone help me? I can be reached AIM via elwesso69
I am having advanced computer problems!

Hmmm well is it slave drive? try this, have your main harddrive with your OS on it as master, the drive u want to partion as slave then boot to a dos start disk, go to fdisk (make shure u know what drive is your good drive and wich one is the one u want to partion) and erase everything, delete any partiotons even the ones dos cant read (like NTFS) then reboot the computer and go back into fdisk and try to partion it, if it does it then boot to your OS and format it (or u can use fdisk the OS is nicer because it has the gui) if non of that works go download partioin magic and try that, if THAT dosnt work then get norton disk doctor, if u need that i can get it for u.. msg me on aim WolkT115
