i posted this same post at MO but no1 replied, i hope i can get some answers here

i have an epox8k3a+ with 2x seagates barracuda4 raid0

the problem is. everytime i try to use fdisk, it only reads as one partition of 10796MB or 10.5Gig instead of 70Gig... and its says its 100% of disk/

my problem is i need to delete that and create a primary, and an extended and many logical's within th extended///

Micronpc, do you know what disk you used to FDISK?

I found a KnowledgeBase article that talks about WINME boot disks containing a wrong version of FDISK that WIN2k chokes on. Perhaps you need a new version of FDISK?

Other options:
Look on the Seagate disks and see if they have their own fdisk'ing util.

lol


ok, i checked seagate.com
and they have a tool, that lets you do what fdisk does, also i can do it by % using FDISK..
meanin..
my 80gig partition shows as a 10gig
well i make it 10% of the total(80) so it will be 8gig, and then the rest extended, and then create many logical, also based in %

thanx for the tip, i try that new tool
