Hello Free, Mark, Ray, Craig, Sentinel, List -

I combine and HERE is THE RESULTS.
I am truly appreciating your involvement in trying to resolve my HD
problem with formatting.

I left on my new computer that I put from new parts, in a way Mark
Brown did, only
1. Unformatted 60Gb HD that connected to IDE0
2. Plextor CD ROM that connected to IDE1 and
3. Floppy 1.44 Drive.
I have Original Win2k on one CD, SP2.

Here what I did:
Turn on computer.
When BIOS boot started, I inserted Win2k into CD-ROM.
When computer said << press any key to boot CD-ROM >> I pressed
<enter> key.
Win2k session started.

When Win2k loaded it displayed - recognized two FAT32 partitions C:
and D:, each 2048-Mb and unformatted empty space of HD.
It asked where do I want to set OS.
I pointed to 2Gb partition C:.
It asked if I want to format that C: I said NO leave existing format.
Win2k Setup failed. Reason disk damaged ...

I did the same with D:. However, choose new format NTFS.
Result the same. Win2k Setup failed. Reason disk damaged ...

Then I created 2Gb new partition E:. Choose format NTFS.
Result the same. Win2k Setup failed. Reason disk damaged ...

Then I created 1Gb partition F:. Choose format NTFS.
Result the same. Win2k Setup failed. Reason disk damaged ...
I ended Win2k session.
All that was at the same Win2k session.
NO RESULTS ACHIEVED.

What did I miss?
Thanks in advance.
