Use the Display Partition Information option of the FDISK
program to see if your hard disk has an active (bootable)
DOS partition on it. (See the MS-DOS Reference Manual
for instructions on using FDISK.) If it does not, back up all
your hard disk files and then reinstall MS-DOS on the hard
disk. See your MS-DOS Installation Guide for instructions.
If your hard disk does have an active DOS partition, back
up all your hard disk files and then try reformatting your
hard disk using SELECT. See your MS-DOS Installation
Guide for instructions.
5.
If your hard disk is producing a lot of read/write errors or
you are having other serious problems with it, try running
the Hard Disk Drive and Controller diagnostics check,
described in Appendix D. If the diagnostics program
indicates an error, contact your Epson dealer. Never open
the sealed unit that encloses the hard disk.
6.
If you have been using your hard disk for a long time and
begin to see numerous read/write errors, the magnetic
signals on the disk may be getting weak. If this is the case,
you may need to reformat the hard disk. If you decide to do
this, follow these steps:
Back up all the data on the disk using the BACKUP
command (described in the MS-DOS Reference Manual).
Follow the instructions in Appendix E to perform a low-
level (physical) format.
Follow the instructions in the MS-DOS Installation
Guide to install MS-DOS on the hard disk.
