I just installed a Tempo UATA66 PCI card in my PM8600/G3. I bought a new Maxtor 40 Gig HD, and installed it. I tried to partition it, and format it as HFS+ (Mac OS Extended), but when I did, I got a "system error" message. I restarted and got the re-initialize prompt. When I select Mac OS Standard, it will initialize, but it won't do a thing (except give the system error message) if I go for Mac OS Extended. I'd prefer to go with Extended, but am I out of luck? Have I missed something simple?

Thanks for any help you can give.
