Also Make sure at the first page of Fdisk, when it asks
you to enable large disk support that you are
hitting "Y". Without it you are limited to 2 GB with the
fat32 file system

The disk might be partitioned with a partition type that
FDISK doesn't
recognise. What information does FDISK provide about
the existing
partitionining and the drive size?

You can use WIPE or ZAP at this site to eliminate
everything from the drive
so that FDISK will see a blank drive.

My old hard drive crapped out, and I bought a new one
today. During fdisk, it says there are no partitions
set
up. When I try to setup a primary dos partition it
says
there is not enough space. What do I do?
