How do I partition in XP

[snidy]

I need to partition my Raid 0 striped drive, is there a way to do it in Windows XP, or do I need to use my Windows 98 startup disk and use fdisk?

Do it in the logical disk manager. It's part of the Computer Management MMC. Under Storage, then Disk Management.

Right click on the free space on your disks and you can partition and format them.

ok, but my system will not recognize my raid 0 as one large hard drive, how do I reformat and partition them together as one large drive c.

Are you using hardware RAID, or do you want to use software RAID?

If you're using hardware RAID, you need to configure it in the RAID controller's BIOS. The OS will only "see" the drives as they're presented to the OS by the disk controller.

To use software RAID, create a volume in WinXP, format it, convert it to a dynamic disk, then you can create a mirror of it on the free space on another drive.
