[Help] Cannot format

**puner** · 11-11-2006,07:48 PM

Hey,

I got this hd, all though it says that it is fully working, i on the other hand cannot get it to work. I first tried formating with HDLoader 8b , it failed there, then i tried formating with winhiip, and it also failed there.

can someone help me?

Hey charlie, give hdl_dump a try. Use the initialize command.

Do you have the drive set to master while in the ps2 and slave while in pc?

Take a look at this link too.

I did the no jumper setting and my pc still didnt see it. Its not even under "disk management". I put the jumper horizontally they way its show in the picture and it still doesnt matter.

Im using a usb enclosure. The hd just makes a very hard loud vibration.

Perhaps the usb enclosure isnt working?

Did you try using both horizontal slave jumper settings?
