When you formatted the drive did you set it up as FAT16 or FAT32? ME won't work with NTFS. Also the primary partition has to be set up as "bootable" by copying certain .sys files to it. You can run the format/fdisk from a startup disk or from the CD/floppy (MaxBlast) that came with the Maxtor drive. If you run format from the DOS prompt remember to use the /s switch so add system boot files.

When you ran fdisk, make sure that you set the c: drive partition as active and that you used "lba" feature.

Next did you format /s (system bootable)
this adds io.sys, msdos.sys, command.com making the c: bootable

then reinstall windows
