I am working on a friends box, IPC 1GHZ Celeron, 256 meg, with 40 gig Fujitsu drive (Chaintech 6VTA2 MB). It crashed running XP OEM. Cannot format correctly, cannot reset to zero with Fujitsu program. Partition size errors, write errors etc. Removed partition with PMAGIC 8 and created new, did not work. I have installed 1 gig WDC drive and installed win 98 to try and work around, works fine if Fujitsu drive installed as slave, once Fujitsu removed I get disk boot failure, insert boot disk? This is very puzzling, I am on my network can read Fujitsu add and remove files although it is slow, both on lan and from WDC/98 disk. What files is the computer after on the fujitsu to boot and why can I not remove/replace them? Can anyone assist with this, I am too stubborn to quit after 5 days of banging away at the problem.
