Trying to help a neighbor here. This is an older AT 'puter with a totally fouled up system. Trying to do a clean install and I can not get it to recognize the correct size HD. I set everything right in bios, enter fdisk and it sees the 8.4 drive, fdisk with one partition, reboot to format and only 528mb is seen. Bios is set to auto detect, LBA. Does the same when set to normal. Bios does see it as 8.4 when setting it up but on reboot it is 528mb.I have done a low level format with maxtors utilities as at one point setup showed bad sectors. Maxtors utilities says the drive is ok now. Is this virus, they were not practicing safe computing at all but as I said I did the lowlevel format, (wouldn't that remove any no-no's they might have had). A floppy from there 'puter did come up as infected with junkie boot virus when I was making a fresh start disk to try and straighten this out. Where do I go now guys and gals!
