i know i`ve done this before ..

How do i enable the F drive on a Harddrive ..

The drive is already setup under evox, but shows F:0, which is dam weird with a 80gb HD installed ...

first, how big is your E drive? And if you want to use the f drive, all you have to do is allow it in the evox settings and set it to yes.

I double checked the evox settings, " F " drive is enabled, and i formated it under slayers auto install, but in the Evox screen i still have E:5.xxx.xxx.xxx F:0

Any other sugestions ??

Now i`m begining to pull hair, ... !!!

I removed the HD, after unlocking it .. installed it in the PC, Ran F disk on it, ( showed up as 80gb ) formated it in XP, ran prepair HD on it ..

Installed it into the X-box ..

Ran Slayers install, F=0 still ..

hmmm

Gave up ...

Installed another 80gb HD .. Worked First time ..
I`m setting the original 80gb HD in a Windows XP machine, after windows has been setup, I`ll try it in the Xbox again ..

Hmmmmmmm ... Arggggggg
Windows XP set up with NTFS partition
Reinstalled in Xbox, and EVOX sees the original C & E drive, but still no " F " .. ...

Maybe its time to bring the old amiga 1200 out, install the HD in it
under HDprep .. !!
