Did a stupid thing. Pulled the lead on an external h/d whilst
transferring some files. Nothing was critical so I figured I'd just
have to format the disk and start again. Using Win XP SP2.
Noooo. In spite of deleting the partition and formatting to NTFS,
chkdsk tells me the disk is in RAW format, and every format fails.
How can I resurrect this h/d?
