try to remove all partitions with M$-fdisk, it´s never an failure to create/remove partitions with the OS which should/has worked on it and try to autodetect your harddrive if in the laptop´s bios there´s such option (well, i don´t know your hardware at all) until next mail ;) Peter -- :~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~: : student of technical computer science : : university of applied sciences krefeld (germany) : ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
