I started repairing a parent's computer and started by formatting the hard disk. The format failed after ~60% due to bad clusters. I then proceeded to do an Fdisk to delete the primary dos partition and so on. But as usual I was prompt for the hard disk label. Since it was not my computer and I didn't take note prior to start formatting, I could not go any further, and the formatting removed all traces.
I will be installing a new hard disk anyway because the old one needs to be replaced, but I am curious to know if someone knows a trick! to get the disk label if your stuck not having initially noted it.
