Re: fdisk?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Load your XP disk into the rom drive and close the tray. Then turn off the
machine even if you have to hold in the power button. When the machine shuts
down wait a few seconds and power up. Installation disk will begin loading
and it will give you the option to format and or set your partition.

As mentioned, fdisk is of little use to you in NT-based systems and
useless for NTFS. But you can still use fdisk to remove partitions, and
add delaprt.exe to the boot floppy to remove stubborn NTFS partitions or
logical drives.

'Win98 SE boot floppy'
(http://users.adelphia.net/~abraxas/dl/Win98SE.exe) (with large drive
fdisk, unformat.exe, and delpart.exe)

You might also try starting the installation with the XP setup
floppies:

'XP Setup Boot Disks' (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310994)

or this single setup floppy:
