I have a Bridgeport knee mill with a mill pet cnc system. I had to replace the hard drive and I don't have the format floppy. I have the latest system disk but I can't format my hard drive to accept it. Any ideas where I can find one would be greatly appreciated.
 
Well my first test would be to format it as a FAT16 or plain old FAT file system and see if that works. You should be able to plug it into any PC and do this.
 
I had a computer guy come today and he tried a bunch of different things. He told me that we are going to need a Fdisk (format disk) the problem is He don't have one in a floppy disk.
 
"diskpart" is the program that replaced fdisk. It's been in Windows since XP and through 10. Just mount your hd in a Windows pc and have at it.
