What to do after a Low level format.
My MAXTOR drive was low level formated.

But now when i try to run format c: or even try to open the drive, it won't work.

I did something wrong. It all started with a boot virus I think.

Now the drive is messed up.

Is it beond repair???? I hope not.

Try within Windows in "Disk Management" or outside Windows with a GParted-LiveCD.
