I tried searching but i got an error that my words were not long enough, stupid search function.

Anyway, I need to turn an ntfs drive back to fat32 so I can install 98 because xp has too much garbage running and way too much security crap. The problem is my floppy drive is busted and I cant boot from it, is there a win 98 boot cd? If there is, where can I get it?

You know a floppy drive is only 7 or 8 bucks.
I think you can do that with any Live Linux CD

The Win98SE is bootable but if you want to use WinXP on another another partition then your going to need a floppy drive so you can boot from floppy, Fdisk the drive to make two partitions then Format them. As garmanma says they aren't much. dry.gif

GParted will boot from CD and reformat - repartition your drive.
Very easy to use.
