I can't format an external USB Western Digital 400 Gb hard drive using
Windows xp with SP2. The progress indicator shows 100% of the drive is
formatted but shortly afterwards, I get an error message, "Windows can't
complete the format."
I get the same message regardless of whether I attempt a quick or slow
format, regardless of whether I use the command prompt or the logical disk
manager, and regardless of whether I attempt the format on my main computer
or a second computer. Does anyone know what the problem is?
