"i was trying to delete the primary partition on the old drive running fdisk,after removing all my data, Then I was going to create a new partition and format drive D the old one." Makes sense. Where did you attempt to run FDISK? You should attempt to run it from MS-DOS mode only. Should be free of any drive locking. Better yet, restart with a boot disk with the FDISK.EXE program on it. Then try to delete and recreate your partitions. Rich
