Help needed

[Barry Lee]

I recently decided to finally use a copy of Red Hat 6.2 on an old Pentium machine with a 1.3G drive. I found that when I had installed Red Hat there was not enough disk space left to do anything worthwhile and so, having bought a copy of Red hat 7.3 I decided to install that on a partition of my main computer instead and I am now beginning to experiment with it. I decided I would reinstall Windows to the old computer. However, I am now unable to get any version of Windows to install on the old hard drive. I have low level formatted, repartitioned and tried installing Windows 3.1, Windows 98 and Windows ME, all to no avail. The errors that come up differ with each version of windows but none of them get past the first part of the setup programme. Scandisk tells me there are no errors on the drive.   What is going on? Has Red Hat made the hard drive unusable for anything except Linux?   Barry Lee.
