A low-level format is not what you need. As a matter of fact, you can't
lowlevel format an IDE drive like you would a SCSI drive.
Check the following:
- Recreate your boot floppy on another, new, floppy disk.
- Reset the computer's BIOS to the factory defaults.
- Remove any plug-in cards in the computer that aren't necessary, only to
limit the possibility of interrupt conflict, hardware problems, etc.
