Pascal,
 
I'm not really the expert on this stuff, but no one else has replied so I'll throw my two cents in.  With the little detail you've given, my guess is that your hard drive is bigger than DOS can handle.  DOS can't usually handle anything bigger than 8 gigs, 2 gigs on some systems.  Try re-partitioning your HD into chunks smaller than 8 gigs, if that doesn't work try 2.  If Dos can actually see your hard drive then the problem is something else.
 
Good luck,
LDB
