Creating Partitions under Windows 2000
After installing a new hard disk it is necessary to create partitions when the
partitions have errors or need to be changed.
Caution
By deleting or creating partitions or logical DOS hard drives all saved data is lost
on the hard disk. All drives on the hard disk will be erased.
The hard disk is delivered with the following installed:
– a partition with the FAT32 file system ,
– a partition with NTFS file system.
To restore the partition to its delivery state, proceed as follows:
Primary Partition, FAT32 File System
1. Boot from the Recovery CD and press ESC when the BIOS message
Press <F2> to enter Setup
appears. After initialization, select the boot options in the boot menu.
2. Select ”ATAPI CD-ROM Drive”.
3. Select ”2. Boot for FDISK, FORMAT or Windows 98 Setup” in the ”Microsoft
Windows Startup Menu” screen form.
4. Start the Microsoft Windows hard disk configuration program with ”A:\>FDisk”.
In the screen form select “Do you wish to enable large disk support (Y/N)...?
[ Y ]” for Yes to support data media with large memory capacity.
5. Create a primary DOS partition with 4090 MB. Enter [N] for “No” for the
question ”Do you want to use the maximum memory size available for the
primary DOS partition and do you want to activate this partition?” and set the
partition size to 6100 MB.
