Newsgroups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware,comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc Subject: Hard Disk Problem -- HELP! Message-ID: <5930@munnari.oz.au> Date: 5 Nov 90 00:28:58 GMT Sender: news@cs.mu.oz.au Lines: 18 Hi, I have a very annoying problem with my hard disk. Ok, its about 22Mb with an 'Omni' brand controller (I think) The problem is it seems to hve stopped at 10Mb. dir & similar commands agree that the free space is ~12Mb, but once its 10Mb full I get General Write Error messages. Re formatting it is not something I would like to do as my only floppy drive is 5.25" 360K (Yes I am a poor student!) Does this sound familiar to anyone? Thanx in advance, .simon.
