Do you know how large the hard drive actually is? What kind of machine do you have? When you do fdisk, you must tell it to support large drives (fat32) otherwise, 2 gig is the max.

You can buy partition magic which I believe can fix all that without you having to reload everything.

yea use partition magic, either buy it or get it off warez sites......i just installed it, works great. If you do have to do fdisk, make it support large drives and try exiting all the way out of fdisk before restarting it, say after deleting partitions and adding, etc. Then do a format afterwards.
