Hi,

I also think the key here is either upgrade disks or normal OS disks just as hwm54112 suggested.

If you go to the link he gave you and scroll down to the Fdisk options and download a boot disk from HERE, then you should be ready to Fdisk and format.

When you get the boot disk, select either the Win98se version or WinMe version, because it has a couple of things that win98 and win95 do not have.

Put the thing as said in the link that it was given to you and away you should go. Be sure after you Fdisk it that you create a partition, and activate a partition....and, you must shut down and restart before formatting. If you have difficulty understanding their instructions, will go through them with you.

Post back with questions concerns.

Boot order should be set to:'

CDRom - 1st (note: You can switch the cd and floppy order)
Floppy - 2nd
Hard Drive - 3rd
