Thanks Ryoko! I may have to do that. However, I did find this M$ article. And, It looks easy enough, so I'll give it a try 1st. If'n it doesn't do the job, Low Level Format here I go! Thanks, ....jc

I'm rebuilding a system, and the intent is to make it a multiboot animal(DOS/NT/XP Pro). Somewhere along the way I messed up the hard drive. DOS Fdisk thinks that I have 2 physical drives! It will only let me access the original 1st partition which it thinks is one entire drive! It's only 400 mb. I can access the rest on what Fdisk thinks is another drive. Now, NT sees it all. So I partioned it as 1 large partition, and formatted it(7.6GB). Back to DOS and it still only sees the 400MB on what it thinks is disk 1, and it sees the rest as disk 2. I don't know what I did but I need to get this disk back to where Fdisk sees it as just 1 physical drive. Any ideas of how to do that w/o buying a 3rd party product? Thanks, ....jc

Thanks for the replies! I finally got everything to install correctly(kind of ). Anyway, I'm rebuilding again, and another problem. When NT install gets to the network install(after the network types to install<tcp/ip...>), the install just hangs. Any ideas? Now I'm rebuilding this machine, but it's very stable using the original NT system(switching drives). This hang has occurred 3 times! Any ideas? Thanks, ....jc

I had sp6patch_i386.exe on a network drive and I tried to install that. I don't remember the exact verbage, but it wouldn't install. I just fired it up on another box and it says 'NT 4 SP 6.0 Setup'. I think that it complained about IE 2.0! I need to reconfigure drives to make another attempt, so maybe tonite! Thanks, ....jc

I'm reinstalling NT after a HW failure. I have NT 4.0 installed, but with IE 2.0 I can't even get windows update to function! Does anyone have a recommended list of SP's to install? I just downloaded SP4 and I'm going to give it a shot. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks, ....jc
