"I'm hoping there is some wise person out there that can lead me out of darkness!"

Power Quests Partition Magic should do that for you. You might also try this: Save your image as a partition image, not a disk image. (Keep a full disk image just in case this doesnt work!) Next, using DOS or Partition Magic, Fdisk and Format your offending drive making sure you format the drive and copy the basic system files; ie., assume the format program is on a floppy and you have a floppy drive:
A:\format C:/sys

I know for a fact basic DOS fdisk does remove the DDO, I have done that in the past. Someone may have an easier way. If you don't understand this, or are not all that computer savy, try and find someone to physically do this for you. It is easy to screw things up. Good luck.
