RE: The evil Dynamic Drive Overlay..



If the BIOS supports the Disk (via LBA) then just run : fdisk /mbr and it
will replace the boot sector.

I would try a couple of thing. Try a dos fdisk. Call Ontrack and ask
for an upgrade. I did this a year or so ago for a client that had
lost their original disk. Cost was about $25.00 (US) plus shipping.

Try (800) 752-1333.
