Can't Fdisk. WTF?

[Speed121]

When I try to repartition I get "cannot delete because logical drives exist" Then when I try to delete logical it says logical not defined. I am simply trying to delete all partitions and reformat. I have never run into this before, can someone help?

use another program to partition yoru drive--like a linux distribution parititioning program--that worked for me, or maybe partition magic

Use Ranish for partitioning... it's simple but very powerful. Just uncompress it and put it on your boot disk.

That's happened to me several times on a 30 gig maxtor. Pop in the mfgr's diskette and repartition with that. Works everytime!

Microsoft's "Delpart.exe" utility will get rid of any partition. Download it here: Delpart.exe download

Always have a boot disk for MS DOS 3.3, it will get rid of ANY type of partition.. at least all i have come across.
