You have mistyped exe name.
First you typed just typed hddhack
In second try you forgot to type r after hddhack and space between hddhack -r

But it will not work from windows - Command line in windows NOT DOS (If you are not using Win 98 or lower).
You need to use DOS bootable flash drive, or something similar....

I donīt think if it is good idea to mod your hdd if you are not able even use command line.
You can totally mess it if you will use it wrong.

Find some tutorial, it may help you

rename the file to hdd.exe

use the file I attached to make a bootable USB drive

boot from USB

type hdd.exe and follow on screen instructions

BTW I see you are running Windows 7 how you like it?

Attached Files
File Type: rar Bootable_USB_Drive_Creator_Tool.rar (302.0 KB, 25 views)
