- My brother's hard disk with stacker installed took a turn for the worst (FAT
- destroyed). Anyway, I want to do a low-level format since the 100MB disk has
- two partitions on it and he wants to instead just have one big disk. Apparently
- the "FORMAT" command doesn't do this. So the question is, where do I get a
- low-level hard disk formatter?
-
- Thanks,
- Norm.
