You could probably get a boot floppy image from the drive manufacturer online and test / repair it.

thanx for posting.
I searched here and then I tried it whith its MDK cd,but failed.When using fdisk it said "read only",so I couldn't erased it.Anyway rebooted into new drive ( which was wierd cause it didn't boot before when bad drive connected),while booting I deleted those 2 bad partitions (It was why drive was useless ).Booting finnished (new drive).I checked Drakconnect and found this drive.Those 2 bad partition were still there so I deleted them again.
Then I tried boot MDK cd (had only the BAD drive connected,BIOS etc),I wanted to re-install LILO ( so I could leave it there and used 80gb somewhere else),but get some error again.It was last chance.
So finally I put new drive back and booted into it.And DELETED its bad drive,all partitions.
thanx for your time,now I have my drive ready for use.
