Your HD is improperly locked with a wrong key. Run Configmagic to unlock, then lock

Hook up your HD to your PC. Create a bootdisk and run

hddisabl.exe

It will ask for a HD password. Do you have this?

i have the same problem. so return the favor to the group and tell me what you did with the slayers cd. what do you click to format ONLY drive F and not destroy the whole hard drive?

thanks.

It seems like everyone who uses slayers doesn't read any tutorials.  In the HD install with Evox tut there are specific lines you can add to your evox.ini that will format any drives you want.  I think thats a lot easier than getting slayers.

actually, im the opposite. ive read so many tutorials that i cant keep track of what i read where. so when i go back to the tutorial section to find what i need then there are 4 or 5 guides offering contradictory info (due to different builds) and i just break down and ask the board. there really should be a "date" put on each tutorial so you know which are recent and which arent.

okay. im off to reading every tutorial again so i can find that "format" line. i'd much rather do that than deal with slayers because i want to learn the proper way to do all this stuff.

All I did was tell it to rebuild large hd for version 1.0.

You might want to try zeroing the hard drive on your pc with the tool "HDprepar" on this site. That might work for you as well. It erases everything completly on the hard drive and puts it back to its original state as if you just bought it . then try formating it with evox.
