new hdd to factory state - problems

#1 Post by thinky » Wed Jul 19, 2006 10:28 pm

I just got a new 7200 rpm hdd, and I want to initialize it to factory state using product recovery discs that I have created earlier. However when R&R asks for the product recovery discs, none of the discs work. It gives me an error saying its incorrect disc. Can any one suggest a solution ?
Thanks

Don't select the option: yes when it asks is it IBM disk. Click NO and you are ready to go. :-)

There is only 1 question and 2 options yes and no.

Q)Is this disk from IBM?
Click NO
