    partition magic

    hi dude!

    log onto KaZaA, where you can download a free copy of partition magic, with this you can create a set of boot disks, which will format the partition for you without the hassle of the old and ancient "Fdisk ".

    regards,

    reg_edit:rolleyes:

    try "format /fs:filesystem filesystem meaning whichever filesystem you need e.g fat, fat 32, ntfs

    or even go into dos and type the following "format /? "
    to find out what to do,#

    KaZaA

    hi dude, kazaa is spyware, just to let you know, but the stuff on there, it's amazing, make sure you have up to date virus definitions, http://www.kazaa.com

    it is a file sharing service.

    all the best,

    Kazaa

    you could also try KaZaA lite (no spyware, but slower) Grokster = http://www.grokster.com, but keep away from winMX, it's crashed my comp a couple of times, so i've had to re-install winXP a couple of times with it.
