  • low density HDD i had suceeded this test to win98se!! 300mb WD AT (:

  • i am curious. the swap space it was attempting to format was sda1.

    thats a usb device is it not?

    shouldnt you have been attempting to install the swap on the hda or hdb partitions?

  • no wonder it failed, its a Crapstor!

  • The Geek Group videos are very entertaining as usual. Keep up the good work. It would be nice to convert the computer display signal directly to video instead of filming the monitor

    Next death test: Video camera filming itself being tested.
