sorry for bad english but please try to understand my problem

would this problem be solved with zero fill if yes please provide me link to image file of bootable zero-fill cd
i also tried the Hutil.exe from samsung.com for low level formatting but this hutil is not detecting my HDD

What is a low level partitioning ? Is it different from a regular fdisk partitioning ?

The link you gave talks about low level formatting... I know about low level formatting ... I did not know about low level partitioning which has been mentioned here. I suppose it was just a typo :)
