Hello [EMAIL PROTECTED],
On some OEM computers like Compaq, Dell, HP, etc. The the heads are
set to 240 Heads per track instead of 255. This is a problem with
many clone computers. My advise is to remove the partition, reboot
the computer and re-partition the hard drive. Unfortunately this is
the only way to make a drive work on another computer.
If there is another problem, let me know,
