analysis does not detect, you can use the Unconditional format
option to flag all the bad tracks manually.
When you select an option from the HARD DISK FORMAT
MENU, the program determines the number of hard disk drives
installed in your computer. If you have more than one drive,
each time you select an option you see this prompt:
Enter drive letter (C/D)?
Press C or
D,
and then press
Enter.
If you have only one hard disk drive, the option you select starts
immediately.
Conditional format (normal)
Use this option to format the hard disk. All flagged tracks are
marked so that they are never used.
To start the Conditional format, press
1
and then
Enter.
The program starts to scan the disk to find all tracks flagged as
bad, starting from the innermost cylinder of the disk. During the
scan, you see the number of the cylinder being checked. For
example, if you have a 20MB hard disk, the first messages you
see are:
