Hi,

Anyone know how to format a dynamic disk or get it back to basic disk ?

I tried:
- windows 2000 / XP disk manager. when selecting "revert to basic disk" it
just flashes.
- dos boot to win 98, use partition magic, cant do anything with it, no
options available.
- partition magic 8 on xp, again cant do anything, no options available.

Any ideas anyone ?

Thanks
Scott.
 
Make sure there are no volumes or data on the dynamic disk
before you try to revert to basic
 
Booting to windows 2000 boot seemed to allow me delete all volumes where
partition magic failed.

Thanks
Scott.
