I always assummed the driver was a piece of operating system software. You're suggesting that the operating system "flashes" the drive or something leaving it's imprint? I know Zip disks carry a copy of their driver on them, but I never guessed that hard drives might. It was concern that what was previously on the drive might be interferring that caused me to format and partition it on another machine; but I hadn't thought of updating the drivers for reasons give above. At this point I'm willing to try anything though; so here goes. If it works I'm going to be really thankful and really confused! Keep the suggestions coming!
