    Description

      When opening HDD Low Level Format Tool ver 4.40 program, it does not start. Complains that a function is invalid. Editions portable and installer of HDD LLFT were tested, both don´t work.
      Website: http://hddguru.com/software/HDD-LLF-Low-Level-Format-Tool/
      Tested in build 20180104-0.4.8-dev-618-g695147e
      (reactos-bootcd-0.4.8-dev-620-g59aa6b9-x86-gcc-lin-dbg.iso).

      But when testing HDD Low Level Format Tool on ReactOS 0.4.7 LiveCD, the program starts, but it does not detect any hard drive.
      (“ReactOS-LiveCD-HDDLowLevelFormatTool01.png” screenshot).
      The similar situation happened when it test this program in WINE in GNU/Linux.

      The DEBUG.LOG was made by “ReactOS (Logfile)” boot option, I hope it will be enough.
      I´m still have problems trying to receive debugging info from virtual COM ports between VirtualBox and system serial monitoring programs.

       

      Update: running this program in vgal ReactOS LiveUSB, it works! :
      It shows correctly device info.
      (I don´t tested wiping a disk yet).

      I submitted the screenshots. Sorry if it offtopic, but there are related to this problem (aparently solved in vgal LiveUSB build, as I can see).

      Cause “LiveCD (Logfile)” in a USB Stick as LiveUSB, does not work in this unofficial ReactOS build and I don´t have serial cables to connect to another computer, I don´t have debugging logs to submitt.
