Hi,
I'm sooo new at this so please bear with me.
I have just put in a new hard drive so l can put XP on hubbie's machine. It all started ok, l partitioned it ok but when l went to format it, it gets to 80% and then l get this nice little message "TRYING TO RECOVER ALLOCATION UNIT 1,575.000" and the number is getting larger.

What's happening?????????? how can l fix it pleaseeeeeeee
