Hi there, I am new to this site and not sure if my questions will be appropriate. I am just learning about a variety of things to do with computers and am trying to fdisk my hard drive. My existing drive has Windows 2000 on it and I need to fdisk it and reinstall Windows 98 on it. Problem being I try and fdisk it and it tells me that the volume is in use do I want to force its (sorry forget the terminology here) but anyway I answer yes and it tells me that I can not do it. I have tried a couple fdisk utilities as well as just creating a boot disk and trying to get the computer to boot from floppy into dos and do it that way and I have no luck. Can someone direct me to a url that would have some good instructions for doing this?

Thanks
