I don't know what it is you expect US to do about a failing command...

As an alternative, if you can connect the larger drive to the PC, consider downloading and installing Minitool Partition Wizard -- which is a free partitioning tool. 

If that does not work, then there is something basic at work and we would have no way, from here, for diagnosing or repairing that.

basically want to know  how to reformat it , i know its possible  cause while playing with with a few programs 1 night diskpart and format work, unfortunately at 33% i had not notices my ac adapter had be unpplugged and computer died.

all of these programs require u to pay for them to do the task as i want , which i have no problem with if they work. just wondering if someone new how to fix a corrupted hd

You basically can't fix a corrupted drive; instead, you have to reformat it from scratch.

The Minitool app I recommended is FREE, so I don't know why you said you have to pay for it.

You have to connect the drive you want to reformat to a working PC in order to do that.
