Bad Cluster when using Win 2K
This is a discussion about Bad Cluster when using Win 2K in the Windows Hardware category; I have a problem here but doesn't know whether it applies to everyone or just me. I found out that it seems like Windows 2000 marks bad clusters on my hard disk anyhow. I reformat my hard disk under unconditional format, it report no bad clusters.

I found out that it seems like Windows 2000 marks bad clusters on my hard disk anyhow. I reformat my hard disk under unconditional format, it report no bad clusters. After I reinstall Windows 2000 a few days, it run scandisk and report bad clusters again. This time, I low-level format my drive and conventional format my drive and redo everything again, the same thing happens after a week. Coincidently, one of my friend having the same problem as me (Different drive).
It could be coincidently both of us having hardware problem, but I just want to know is there anyone out there having similar problem? If there is a big number of us having such problem then we can confirm it is a bug.
