way late to the party. WB Blacks are the ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. Seagate drives ARE ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. As for password, use a Hirens boot disc, and blank the password. Free and easy to find. |

It worked!!!1! All hail Louis Tully!! :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: If anyone else needs to do this, the process is simple: 1. Download the correct version of GParted LiveCD from here and burn the .ISO to a CD-R. 2. Connect the drive you need to configure for GPT. 3. Boot up using the GParted LiveCD -- default settings should be fine. 4. Select the disk to configure for GPT. (Don't accidently nuke the drive with your OS/files ::) ) 5. Device -- Create Partition Table -- Advanced -- gpt (Pic shows msdos instead of gpt) -- Apply. Warning: This will erase all data on the entire disk. 6. HDD is now ready for Win7 install. Scott |
