Hi Ethan :)
1. In your position, I would follow the advice to reset the BIOS
settings.
2. Can you run the Parted Magic live media?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/partedmagic/files/partedmagic/
Or a similar light weight Linux live media?
OT:

Ethan would get more eyeballs, and therefore a larger pool of potential help,
if he posted in plain text.
I'm able and willing to read HTML, even if IMO HTML for emails is
obsolet. HTML for emails was a valid experiment, to test if comfortable
text formatting could be provided. The experiment failed, HTML for
emails comes with more drawbacks, than advantages. We still have enough
issues without HTML and shouldn't add extra-issues. The formatting of
this thread even for HTML was über-disgusting.
