How do I run fdisk/mbr? I want to clear the mbr on an old HDD.
Here's my situation on the old computer:
The floppy does not work. (no boot-up disks)
The CD-ROM does not work. (no re-installing windows)
It locks up after post. (no getting into windows)
I have winXP on another computer which doesn't have DOS.
Can I clear the mbr of the old HDD using my new computer and as that drive as the slave?
If so, how????? Something with the command prompt?
I can't afford to totally format this drive.
