    I boot into dos and go to fdisk to try and delete the partion on a SCSI hard drive. Everything appears to go ok until i restart the computer and the partions are still there, same size and volume labels. One primary and the other extended dos. I am even unable to just delete the logical drive. 
    I can however format the logical drive but have no access to the primary partion. I get the message "Drive is not formated, do you want to format now?" I try to format it and it doesn't complete. Windows tells me that it was not able to complete the format and when trying to do it from dos all i get it "Abort, Retry, Fail" at the prompt.

TIA
