I got 160 GB hard disk, when i want to format from the disk management console it says, an internal error and i cant format or if i want to delete partition it says you cant delete becoz of internal error you have to restart your computer of the console and i did that and the same result, NOW the strange is that when i boot my PC on SAFE-MODE i can format from the Disk management console with no pop-up msg saying internal error and it works fine

Look in Disk Management at the drive and see what type of disk it is. Basic or Dynamic.

I don't understand what you want to do. Do you want to partition, format, scan?? You said it's a separated disk.......... do you mean an external USB drive?
