Pheonix BIOS P133 /w 24mb ram (2 identical looking sims)

Only happens when my maxtor hdd is plugged in

Only happened after I fdisked the drive

I used this maxtor drive in my win98 pc so its still FAT32 filesystem formatted with allmy junk on it....

I attempted an fdisk the option where it says maximum size for a bootable partition...

DR DOS, MSDOS (6.22 & 7.1 & 8.0) will not boot
DR DOS Says Divide Error
MSDOS (all versions) says Loading MS DOS or Win 98...

i hear it read the hdd for about 1 second ...then...
it locks up with the floppy disk spinning...

Any IDEAS?????
