i lost a WD(ide all are ide) about 2 mouths ago. and i pretty much lost 2 more yesterday. i was using the two and had w2kpro on a 20gig. and then i loaded xp onto the other. so i boot up on xp and 2000pro as slave and i never ever could see my slave win using xp.
well i didn't like xp so i wiped that disk clean bye deleteing the partition and then creating one again.(like i always do) but it could not complete the format.
so i did all i could and stuff. and somehow may 2000pro drive stopped working too........ but i still got it to load agian today. and then tryed my xp drive that didnt work...again....so i put the 2000pro drive back in and then that didnt work so it is very hit and miss.
any help or tips are welcomed and wanted and needed
drive that died and have not come back at all are:
WD(40gig):
started one day and all it did was beep repeatedly and list ramdom charactors on boot up.
maxto(30gig)(the xp drive): windows can not format it.
seagate(20gig)(the 2000pro): sometime works hit or miss
