I have an older 6gig hd that was last used on a Mac. I need to format it to hold a XP OS.
I have it slaved and it reads in the Bois but I cannot figure out how to format the damn thing.
I dont see an option to enter DOS or Fdisk anywhere in the startup process.

Any help?

its one of those things. As soon as you ask for help you find the answer on your own right after.

Control Panel>Admin tools>Computer Management
