Fdisk can refomat ntfs to fat 32? >>

Well, fdisk can wipe the old partition table and then format a new FAT32 partition. That's not exactly the same as formatting the NTFS partition, but it'll do what you need it to do.

Re:Yeah it's really a cake walk if you start with win98 :)

Re:it won't work even if you try installing win98 using setup.exe/ ntldr because C is not fat32!
if you're serious about dual booting, suggest you start from scratch installing win98 first on C the install xp! :)
