Hello: I have been trying to install NT4.0 on a hidden partition with Win98 using Partition Magic.I run the "prepare for new OS" wizard. I reboot and configure Bootmagic.When I try to install NT it says the partition is damaged or unformatted.If I try to format it I get a fatal error and it aborts the install.I know the hard drive is not damaged. It is a brand new Quantum Fireball 12.7 gig Any help is appreciated.

SHS I downloaded that fix.It did'nt work. I formatted the whole drive and put NT4 on first as the primary OS.Then I put Win98 on the hidden partition.I appreciate all your help.I am new to NT,and I had another question.How do you disable auto insert notification for the cdrom in NT4. Also,I installed service pack 4.Should I install sp5.Thanks again

I have done that.I converted the entire root drive to FAT before running the "prepare for new OS" wizard.I even tried using NTFS.
