remove the non-DOS partiton using the zero fill utility. go to ADVANCED OPTIONS, MAINTENANCE OPTIONS, UTILITIES. run zero fill to remove all info on the drive.
then try to repartition using the 98 boot disk.

If FDISK won't delete that non DOS partition then download a program called DELPART that will do the job. After, you will be able to set up a FAT 32 partition using FDISK. Download DELPART from www.bootdisk.com Click UTILITIES in right hand column, then scroll down to Partitioning section.
