 Trent,

I have been leaving my laptop on for weeks at a time for 2 years with no problem. The other day I noticed it was very hot and the harddrive started acting up.

After letting it cool down and rebooting I was able to work again. Now it has gotten so bad the data on the drive was scrambled too bad to repair (NT NTFS) ... I decided to reload everything from scratch and used DELPART to remove the 2 partions , 1-NTFS 1-FAT ... leaving the non-Dos for suspend to disk...
Now when I boot it does not even see the drive at all !!

any help would be greatly appriciated...

Don
