" R6003 integer divede by 0 "

How I fixed

Howdy and welcome to AMHD:

Which operating system are you going to install?

What are you using to fdisk with?

Murray

Windows ME is my operating system.

Windows ME is my operating system.

Well, you answered one part of my reply..

Is this going to be a slave drive or are you going to install WinME on it?

Again, what are you using to fdisk with?

Murray

It's a master drive

I do not understand your second question.

I tape fdisk from DOS prompt

Are you booting thew computer using a WinME boot floppy?

Sorry but I don't speak english very well


Are you booting thew computer using a WinME boot floppy??

Murray


Yes.


Yes.


Are you there?
Please can you help me with this


Are you booting thew computer using a WinME boot floppy??

Murray


Can you help me? Are you still there?

Okay..

When you boot using the floppy and get to a:\ prompt, are you typing in fdisk ?

Once there, are you then using the option to set a Primary DOS partition?

BTW, I don't live in AMHD so I am NOT always here to get your reply right away!

Nor is anyone else for that matter!

Ok, I Understand.

Yes, it's the option number 1

Is that when you get the error message?

Murray

Yes.

Okay..

I want you to go to www.bootdisk.com and download the file to make a new WinME startup floppy..

Once you have it downloaded, put a clean formatted floppy in your a: drive..

Next, double click the file you downloaded and let it extract the necessary files to the floppy..

Once everything has copied over, use THAT new floppy to boot and fdisk with!

You know what means this error (R6003 integer divide by 0). It's a failure of the drive, BIOS or harware?

Shut off your virus detection in your BIOS; I ONLY recommend this if you really know what you are doing and looking for, that may help with the error but I suggest leaving that as a last resort.
