My brother's hard disk with stacker installed took a turn for the worst (FAT destroyed). Anyway, I want to do a low-level format since the 100MB disk has two partitions on it and he wants to instead just have one big disk. Apparently the "FORMAT" command doesn't do this. So the question is, where do I get a low-level hard disk formatter? Thanks, Norm. -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ Norm MacNeil Phone: (613) 763-7497 CAD Operation Fax: (613) 763-3317 Bell-Northern Research Ltd.
