a long time ago i posted a topic relating to the fact that windows could not see my entire HDD

i sed it got fixed, but it came back to haunt me a few days ago. so i looked thru a pile of floppies i had

i found 2 boot disks made from partition magic 7 Pro... (the pro version costed a shitload then...) becuz this is separate from the OS, it fixed my issues...

extract each zip into a floppy. the WHOLE ZIP must be extracted!

its no the whole program, i think i could zip it into a few megs, then all they need is two disks and run the wizzard,

pm is only about 30mb which aint much, i used to download bigger things on 56k,

my friend downloaded a full length high quality movie on 56k a long time ago, and he started it a long time before that :lol:

i think its like 50,000kb when you download it from kazaa lite, but extracted to my hard drive it is 57.7mb. two or 3 hours for 56k.

not as far as i know, it can only create/resize move partitons etc

edit: for anyone else interested, here is the rescue disk for pm8, its installer, extracts files to temp directory, runs rescue disk wizzard, and when finished, deletes temp file.

Removed, as virtualbody removed atividia ones, pm me for link. :D

this is like the third time in the last 2 days that you have said something that made no sense at all to people. you say that he hijacked your thread which he didnt, and you also said that we arent helping you but you didnt ask a question...
