After loading several copies of LLFsetup.2.36.1181.exe and installing, I find that when I run the program I get two error messages
Error accessing Drive:Incorrect Function.
and
Cannot change Visible in OnShow or OnHide.

Then the window opens but with no drives showing.

I have seen your program recommended on many, many user sites and would really like to use it. Help!

i like to hddscan v28 for formatting my hdd , it has an option for erasing it , and verifying it , even if it wasnt partitioned , the good thing is that it works with the usb ide adapter ,yes , it detects the hdd's on usb adapter , that is better ,this way the pc wont hang if the hdd is troublesome ,
any way , from what i see at your state , it looks like its locked or some thing , try hddscan and see if it gives you infinite bad sectors , then its locked
