Okay, I've done this before, like in the last century, so I've forgotten. I put in my 98 bootdisk (on a win95 machine) and type fdisk, then choose to enable large drive support. Then I try to Delete the primary DOS partition, when it says to enter the new Volume label (which WAS WINDOWS95) I try to enter Windows98 and it says Volume label does not match and kicks me back to the beginning.
I don't want the volume label for a 98 machine to be WINDOWS95!
Where do I go from here?
Thanks,
James

Who here's a Moron?

It's the confirmation feature, It wants me to type the name of the current partition! I told you it had been a long time!
Disregard this post, or make fun of me if you want, I DO deserve it!
