viewing SATA HDD's from DOS

[bobthefish]

hi i need to format my C Partition, on my sata drive, however i noticed you cannot view the hard disk from dos with a windows 98se boot disk. is there anyway to get around this? i know that you can just Fdisk the drive, but i dont want to do that and risk deleting important data on the other partitions. please help ASAP. thanks.

use the xpdisk to format,when you choose install it will ask if you wish to format and ask you to choose the partition
just m,ake sure you choose the right one
