Hi
Short background:
My computer has slowly disintegrated and I finally understood that the problem was the powersupply I have now belatedly upgraded it and almost everything works better than ever.
Except for one hard drive the one I access the most (except the systemdrive)
Partion Magic gives the following error:
“Disk 1 (19607MB 39838c 16h 63s) appears to have partitions created using a different drive geometry (255h 63s). This serious problem can lead to data loss. No partition manipulations should be made to the disk using this product or the operating system's products. You should back up the data on this disk, delete all partitions, create new partitions under the new drive geometry, and then restore the data using the backup”
Taken from: http://hubpages.com/hub/Drive-Geometry-Error-and-Partition-Recovery
(For me it´s disk 9)
I have done everything recommended at that link, backup etc, and it doesn´t fix the problem
What I want to do is erase all partions on the disk everything and then make one new one that encompassess the whole disk
Neither partion magic or fdisk allows me to do this
If anyone have any suggestions...
