weird hard drive problem
I am reformatting a hard drive and have run into a problem. The disk is supposed to be 6.5GB. The computer is only recognizing c as 500mb. I used fdisk and found that the previous tech had partitioned the hard drive into 2 drives. c is 500 mb and d is 6 GB. Problem is, it does not give me access to D. I tried deleting the partitions and repartitioning, but it gives me a message "No logical drives defined"
When I try to delete the extended dive it tells me "cannot delete extended dos partition while logical drives exist"
I thought maybe he created the extended partition but did not create logicals, so I tried to create a logical drive and I got:"No logical drives defined" and at the bottom"All available space in the extended dos partiton is assigned to logical drives"
Well are there logical drives or not????
How can I wipe out this drive so I can repartition it properly???
Thanks
Rafi
