I get HD - about 400 MB. I am trying to run it on Pentium 200MHz with 64 SDRAM operating system on this HD is Win 3.11 for workgroups. I can not boot from this HD. BIOS is showing correct HD specification. FDISK - is showing primary partiton - 49% and extended 51%. but only letter C is showing next to primary partition. I connected HD with win 95 and THIS [win311] HD and I can see only primary partition [I can see Windows folder and files] on this drive, but I can not see extended DOS partition. This HD [win 311] was running OK on 486 computer and both partition was visible but I don't have access to this machine anymore. Please help, I have very importand files there... Let me know if you need more info thanx vector.
