I just built my computer and I partitioned the hard drive. I tried to format
my hard drive but once it hits 1 percent complete I get an error that reads:

Trying to recover allocation unit

Not Ready
format terminated

What is the problem and how can I format my hard drive and get windows 98
installed?
