Eric is right, I had a look at the relevant lines of the FDISK source. This is 
only an indicator that FDISK generally makes use of LBA, not if LBA for the 
currently selected disk is actually supported. Two different things.

Sorry for that. Had better looked this up by myself before suggesting it.

I now altered FDISK so that it also shows if LBA is actually used. It is 
printed after the disk size in the main menu if started with /XO.

Jim, you may download the new executable from
