HDDERASE problem....

Hey guys....

I'm trying to run HDDERASE to wipe my drive, but having burned this programme to disk, it won't load. All I get is a blank screen with a flashing underscore at the top left corner. I have an ASUS P6T Deluxe v2 Mobo....and dont know if there is a known compatibility issue with these? Could anyone please shed some light on how to get this programme to run? I seem to have done the essentials - set to IDE and Legacy in the BIOS but to no avail??

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers and Merry Christmas to all of you...

Having a FDD is probably the least hassle though. Just takes a little longer to boot and load HDDERase. I bought a USB floppy recently and have found myself using it often for these DOS boot disk type tools.

When i bought a HDD it was'nt formated, I formated in windows xp (quike format) and than replace my old HDD.
