Default Re: Basic Troubleshooting Tips after Installing a New Hard Drive

6. The system hangs in FDISK or fails to create or save the partition record.
a.Check all cables.

b.Your setup system diskette may be corrupted. Try using a backup diskette.

c.Make the partitions smaller.

d.Change the interrupt jumper setting on the host adapter.

e.Some BIOS have a Track 0 protection feature that protects Track 0 from viruses. This may cause FDISK to hang the system. You must disable this feature in the system setup program before you can use FDISK. See your computer reference guide for assistance. Be sure to re-enable this important feature when FDISK is done.
