Frequently Asked Questions - CompuApps DriveWizard

1. When I try to restore I get the option, "LBA mode or Non-LBA mode".
   If your hard disk capacity is around 540 Mega Bytes, then the disk can be accessed in two ways: LBA mode and Non-LBA mode. Since it is not possible to determine which mode of partitioning existed on the internal disk, try LBA mode restore first and see if the system boots through the internal disk. If this fails, try Non-LBA mode restore. This will make the system to boot through the internal disk.
   
   
2. When I use any removable drive (2.2 GB), my system detects as 540 MB drive?
   This problem is due to LBA mode. Some BIOS will not detect removable drives grater than 540MB. You have to go to BIOS and change the detection mode as USER, and MODE as LBA mode and reboot the system.
   
   
3. After upgrading FAT16 file system to FAT32 file system my computer does not boot.
   Upgrading to FAT32 from FAT16 will work for OS systems like Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows 95B (OSR2) or later, Other Microsoft OS like MS-DOS, Windows 95 (first release and service pack 1), Windows NT 3.51, Windows NT 4.0 will not support FAT32 file systems. If you have upgraded to your new hard disk with any one of the OS which does not support FAT32 file systems, your new hard disk will not work.
