If you already have Windows installed, Partition Magic is a good way to go. If not, then use FDISK. Hope this helps.

How do you make an F-disk? and what is it?

Go into DOS (the black screen with a command prompt (if you are using 98 just hit the start menu and restart in DOS mode, if using ME you need a startup disk))then type fdisk and follow instructions

First, read the AT FAQs on partitioning and if you still want to do it, post back with what version of windows you use and I'll hook you up
