Sounds like you had an old version of fdisk or you formatted with fat16..I would download a fresh from http://www.24by7.ca/files/boot98se.exe then insert a fully formatted floppy in the drive and double click on the downloaded file..then reboot and fdisk, delete all partitions, then make a prmary dos partition and set it as active..Then select "Y" when prompted for large disk support..Reboot with both the bootdisk and cdrom in thier drivers and at the A:> prompt type SETUP.
You should also click the report button and ask for this to be moved into its proper forum..
