Subject: Re: Setting up new HD?


I Deleted  a partition in W2000 setup screen and it comes back as an
unformatted partition.
It will not recognize this partition or format it.
I am going around in a circle.
I have a lot of files on the third partition on the disk, so I do not
want to reformat the whole disk.

If I was having that much trouble, I would back up all of my data before proceeding further. I, from time to time, delete the partition I want to install Windows XP on but at the first hint of a problem it is back up time for me. Many advise to back up before even deleting a partition.
