Leave that one alone, I believe it is your Boot partition. It is a Microsoft Reserved Partition. If you bring up Disk Management it will not be shown.
To answer a question:
My DOS Utils CD is a compilation of programs that I've built up over the years.
The original, was a floppy disk, formatted on my Windows ME computer which
I keep for nostalgia. It finally got too big, and so few PC's (anymore) have
floppy disk drives, that I converted over to CD's and Flash Drives.
I've included a password removal tool and NTFS4DOS, so from the DOS disk,
I can access any NTFS partition, to work with files not accessible in Windows.
Since I made the disk, and I am very familiar with all the programs on it,
there is NO Help or How-To section. So anyone using it will have to know some
basics about how to run FDISK. Everything else is pretty much self explanatory.
If I'm in a really big hurry, which I seldom am, I use my Bootable copy of,
EaseUs Partition Manager. It will do a really quick re-partitioning and format,
but a quick format does not check for bad sectors. But it's FAST!
Cheers Mates!
