Okay, i have a 20 gig harddrive, with 2 partitions and i want 3, so far i have: logical drive "c" has Windows 98 on it with FAT 16 (2 gigs of total space). Logical drive "d" is NTFS file system with Windows NT on it, and its 3 gigs. Now, here is where i am having troubles, I want the 3rd partition soley dedicated to Windows 98 using FAT 32 (the rest of the HDD [15 GB]). Fdisk, will not allow me to do this. How the heck do i do this?

If your using the FDISK supplied with Windows 98 it will ask if you want to "enable large disk support". Choose "yes" and any "new" partitions you create will be marked as Fat32.
