I think the OP is meant to say that he is formatting an older disk (I'm |
| 12 |
guessing less than 2TB) with a DOS partition table for the purpose of booting |
| 13 |
with an MBR (as opposed to UEFI). |

Of course I am reading between the lines here, because the OP has not |
| 16 |
formulated the question clearly enough for me to know what kind of code he is |
| 17 |
referring to (the whole PC is full of ... code) and where does he intend to |
| 18 |
enter such code. |
