•
Try another drive type or translation geometry. Sometimes the
host BIOS does not accept a particular translation geometry even
though that geometry is listed as an option during system setup.
•
Make sure that the host adapter is not assigned an interrupt
that is already in use by another device. Modify the interrupt
jumpers if necessary.
During the FDISK program, the error message, “No Fixed
Disk Present,” appears.
•
Check all cables.
•
Check the power supply.
•
Reboot the computer and make sure the drive spins up.
•
Verify the BIOS drive type.
•
Check for I/O address conflicts.
During high-level formatting, the drive keeps finding hard
errors and reporting the following message. “Attempting to
recover allocation units. . .”
•
This is normal with DOS Version 4.0 or later. The drive will
format normally. However, after formatting the drive, you may
want to run a third-party surface-scan program to check for
bad sectors.
During high-level formatting, the drive does not format to
full usable capacity.
•
Verify the BIOS drive type. Your drive’s formatted capacity is
limited to the capacity of the BIOS geometry you selected. If
your BIOS does not offer a geometry that takes advantage of
the full capacity of the drive, and a user-defined drive type is
not available, use a third-party partitioning utility.
