      Hahaha ! It's me ! again !!!

      So i had a raspberry pi 3b defective. I've bought a new one today and all my arcade controllers are working now with retropie on a small sd card that i have ! So happy

      But... during the battle of these last days, i had installed retropie on my hdd pidrive.
      In order to make my arcade controllers work, i have done lot of manipulations and one was not so good. I am discovering it today

      I have removed all the core of retropie.. haha
      So, this morning i have tried to easily format my hdd on windows with the aim of reinstalling everything. But, my hdd is not detected on win 7 !!! (even in disk management)
      I suppose that i have done a mistake, moreover i have understood retropie works on linux so maybe there are conflicts.
      So how could i format my all hdd into ntfs in order to find it on windows and re-begin on good basis ?

      Thank you all
