    Windows 98:
    If you already have 98 installed, you will be unable to create partitions unless you have un-partitioned space, partition magic, and/or partitions you are willing to delete.

    1. Starting with a blank hard drive, put a Windows 98 boot floppy in the floppy drive, and elect to start the computer without CD-ROM support.

    2. At the A: prompt, type "fdisk"

    3. Hit 'y' to enable large disk support.

    From here, you should be able to tell what to do by reading the screen.
