Hi All, I'm upgrading my HD to a 40 gb. I've got Win98 loaded and running on an 8gb partition, and I'm all ready to add the overlay and be able to access the remainder of the drive. I've used IBM Disk Manager before, but it has a horribly cryptic menu system. The only options that would seem to make sense, are to convert the drive to their proprietary format (what does that mean?) or to let it blow away my partition table and recreate it. I don't want either of these, I just want the overlay added to the boot record. I've tried making a boot floppy, and running "fdisk /mbr" from it, but that didn't seem to transfer the overlay to the hard drive. I've downloaded ezmaker.exe from Western Digital, but after going through all the hassle of making a diskette and booting from it, it refuses to run since my disk is a Toshiba brand, not a WD. Can anyone point me to a drive overlay that can be installed on a disk without re-partitioning it? I'm certainly willing to pay a fair price for it if that's what it takes...
