Problem to format a Hard Drive
Hi All!
I've got a problem with my PC. Under Windows XP Pro, Motherboard Asus A7B266, Hard Drive Maxtor 80Go, Primary IDE, Slave. The hard drive is well seen by the BIOS, XP is abble to create partition on it but when I try to format a partition (in NTFS or FAT32), it's impossible. It stay stuck at 0% I tried whith the FDISK at the begining of XP installation, and the problem is here too, formatting stuck at 0%. Does somebody have an idea ? Thanks for your help and sorry for my poor english, I'm french... |
