here's my $0.02 advise use a bootable diskette to boot up your pc. there is a command in the dos called fdisk. you type this on A:> and follow the instructions. actually you can create active or main partition and voila. after that you have to reboot and you can format you hard drive (using format c: /s) also can be found in you bootable diskette. note the bootable diskette should contain dos commands (fdisk and format). hope this helps.
