sorry gdisk is a program that wipes everything on the drive and makes it ready for formatting using a floppy disk. It's a better version of fdisk. Anyway i fixed the problem about the "diskette drive 0 seek failure". I was looking in the BIOS and saw that it said I had a floppy drive installed when infact I don't have one. So I changed it to "not installed" and it boots fine now into the OS. The only problem I have now is that it says "primary drive 1 not found, press F1 to continue". So now i have to press F1 to get to OS. How do I fix this??
