Thanks in advance.
Use Drive Setup. If it will "see" the drive, go to the menu bar and it should give you the option of writing zeros. After writing zeros it should let you update the driver. Once the driver is updated then Drive Setup will format the drive. Format HFS+ if using OS 8.1 or higher. jr __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
