Win2k install won’t play nice!!

by avand1 . Updated 25 years, 1 month ago

I have a 11.5 gig hard drive [ide] with win98
on drives c: d: e:, f: is to be the win2000
install. I go through the install up to the
point of formatting f: then get the message
that it can’t be formatted, after the format
is done?
Win98 works well with no problems what gives?
Am I selecting the incorrect option after my
hard drive is analyzed? The options on which
one to format are rather perplexing. I
selected the drive that matched the capacity
of f:
The nt loader is visible through win98 and
drive f: is present but inaccessible.
c: 2.46
d: 5.84
e: 1.36
f: 1.74
These numbers don’t match the ones after the
hard drive is analyzed in win2000 setup. Cmos
is set to boot from the cdrom and no antivirus.
