To set up Windows 98, your startup drive must be an MS-DOS boot partition. If your startup drive is formatted as HPFS or NTFS, you must create an MS-DOS boot partition before running Setup. For more information about creating an MS-DOS boot partition, see your computer documentation.

I get this error when trying to install Windows 98 or 95, the drive has been fdisk, then formatted.

Any ideas

Thanks
