If you want to install Windows 2000 or XP, I think the Windows installation programs will automatically come up with their versions of fdisk if the target drive has insufficient free space, no Windows partitions, or is uninitialized (that is, brand new). I'm not sure if this is true of Windows 9x or ME. If not just whip out the Windows fdisk program and use it to re-partition your drive as you want. Don't use Linux fdisk to format for a Windows partition even if it has that capability. Use what Windows provides.
