If I'm prepping a disk using FDISK I remove all non-DOS partitions first, then extended and finally the primary. Then re-create your primary and any extended [logical] partitions you require to use all the space available on your hard disk.

There was NO partitions when I created this one, there was none under the partition info.

Remember: Your maximum size for a FAT 16 partition is 4Gb. Thus, you have to enable large disk support when entering FDISK if you want to create a partition bigger than 4Gb. Incidentally, any partition over the 4Gb threshold will automatically become a FAT32 drive after it has been formatted.

I did enable large disk support.

The disk D: you referred to in the first post would be the Microsoft RAMDRIVE if you had booted using the Win98 boot disk floppy.
Usually you get a message saying that the diagnostic tools have been successfully to RAMDRIVE D:

I have never gotten that message before, I should know, I have reformatted this damn computer so much, it ALWAYS said the diagnostic tools were loaded into C DRIVE.
I will try that /mbr you mentioned, I will post back here after I do that. Thanks
