Cannot Format Previous Master Device
Hello,
I have just added a new Maxtor 200GB using a new SATA Apadter Card. I used the software which was provided with the new hard-disk, MaxBlast4 and picked the option "Add New Hard Drive and Set as Bootable Drive" Now I have the same copy of data on my New Hard Disk and the Previous one. I am now using the new HardDisk, but I cannot Format the previous one, Everytime i try to format it, it says "It may be in Use, Do you want to Force It?" So I click no. What do you think is going on ? |

Can you see the drive in windows? Just go there, right click on it, and format just like any other disk. The only thing Maxblast is good for is when your drive starts to die and it gives you some error code
