I'll have to agree, anything you can't repair with a system disc is going to be very time consuming.

My last two machines were HP Pavalians, and I used the system restore discs several times. I had results a bit better than Magik's, but it still hosed up a couple of times. When it did, I just formatted again and started over.

Do you have system restore discs? If so, use them to format, don't use the DOS command.
