Hi Guys,
I have recently bought a Maxtor DiamondMax Plus9 60Gb UDMA 133 drive, the problem I have is that after partitioning the drive (50%,25%,25%) and making the larger partition active, formating all three partitions, then setting the drive to slave to my other drive, only the 50% and one 25% partition show in Windows 98 Explorer (and I suspect in the wrong order). Tried to repartition using bootdisk and Fdisk after resetting to master and disconnecting other drive, but after being asked if I want LBA support and pressing Y, there is an error reading fixed disk.
Also when booted to new drive, can acces C: and D: only.
Anyone any clues as to what is happening?
Cheers
Keith
