Why can't the grldr and fonts in the hidden partition with ID 12 on the ASUS F80DC notebook be found, but they can be found when copied to other visible partitions? There was also a situation like this with a Start Computer desktop machine. However, on other computers, the grldr and fonts in the hidden partition with ID 12 can be completely searched!

What file system is your 12th partition?

All are NTFS! The IMG or ISO in this partition can still be found!

Try changing it to 07 and see if you can find it.

It should be able to be found! The problem is that other computers can find it normally!

Please confirm, if the hidden partition of 12 is restored to the normal NTFS partition of 07, can it find grldr and fonts

The computer is someone else's, and it can't be confirmed now. I just put forward this question to see what the reason is! Why are only the grldr and fonts in the hidden partition of 12 not found? When these two files are copied to other partitions, the ISO or IMG in the hidden partition of 12 can be found!

Probably it's the HPA (Host Protected Area) partition that BIOS can't access.

Part of the files in the partition can be accessed, while the other part can't, which can also be explained by HPA. It's all the fault of the hot BIOS, causing trouble.

The latest version fixes a problem when accessing NTFS. You can also give it a try: http://grub4dos.nufans.net/

The BIOS can recognize the size of the hard disk, and there is no HPA partition. It's just that I set the last partition as a hidden partition with ID12, and put grldr, fonts, ISO, etc. into this partition.
