| 540280 | 2007-04-12 00:46:00 | I need to run Maxtors Powermax to check a faulty HDD. It seems powermax will work from pure DOS only. Trying Safe mode/ Command Prompt did not work. Is it possible to open Win2000 in DOS? Are there other programs that provide HDD checking/repair that do not require DOS? |

| 540282 | 2007-04-12 01:06:00 | Try from the Recovery Console as it is as near as you'll get to Dos. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
