Wrong newsgroup sir! This is for RTs, not PCs . I have directed
followups to comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc, but maybe they should go to a
comp.os.msdos.* group. It seems obvious that this is a clone running
MSDOS, so here are a few scenarios:

	1. You are running MSDOS 3.3 or lower with BIOS that fully
	recognizes your drive type: use FDISK to create another DOS
	partition.

	2. You are running MSDOS 4.0 or greater with BIOS that fully
	recognizes your drive type: same as before, but you could have
	partitioned C: to be the whole drive.

	3. Your BIOS doesn't fully support your drive type: you need
	to get something like OnTrack's DiskManager or Storage
	Dimension's SpeedStor to manage your hard drive for you.
