well i think interleague play is lame. Baseball is all about tradition and rich history and interleague is ruining it. i know fans like it but i think its lame when we see the dodgers playing the yankees in a regular season game in june. maybe just keep crosstown rivalries like LA/Ana,Chicago,new york,etc but who wants to see the twins play the braves. its making the world series less interesting especially if those two teams played in interleague play that same year.cLAssic_BLUE

i think the DH ruins baseball a heck of a lot more then interleague play.  you want to talk about "tradition", well the DH sure isn't that!  i do enjoy interleague play.  as a braves fan, i do not get to see them play boston very often and vice versa.  wasn't fenway sold out for all three games?  so i am sure boston fans enjoy getting to see atlanta play on their field.  seeing atlanta play the phillies for the hundreth time in the season gets boring.

Clinton Portis is a chump, the only reason he was ever good was because he was on one of the best running teams in the leauge (Denver).Tondre22

nice.  couldn't agree more or say it any better.

just proves that the NFL is full of idiots

i know i am, for sure.  i hate online games with a passion that knows no bounds.  i mostly stick with RPG games or action/adventure, and i'm really picky with FPS-- some of them can drive me nuts.  i need a game that is long, complex, and difficult.

It is correct that you need to delete the logical drives of an extended partition before you can remove the extended partition itself. However, I'm not sure why you are experiencing a problem removing the extended partition if the logical drives are no longer present.

What are you using to remove/recreate the partitions? Are you attempting to do this from within Windows? Have you tried using a boot disk with a partition management utility so that you can manipulate the partitions from outside the OS. Also, what is your drive's entire partition structure? Take a screen capture of your disk management if you can and post it.

I am not attempting this from within windows, I have a boot disk with a partition management utility.  The drives partition structure is: primary FAT 8MB, extended NTFS is the rest (10gig HD).  I would display a screen capture, but I am at work.  I have not been treating the NTFS partition as "large", should I change this to "yes" when the screen comes up?  I have also looked on the internet and read somethings relating to DELPART.exe and Wipe by IBM--are these any good?

Hey there,

 I am trying to reformat my hard drive and ran into a little snag.  I want the NTFS partition deleted, however, when I try to delete the extended partition (where the NTFS is located) I get an error message along the lines of it can not delete the drive because logical drives exist.  Well, I try to delete the logical drives on the extended partition and I get an error message indicating that I do not have any logical drives on that partition.  So, I tried to delete the non-DOS partition and that still didn't work.

 Does anybody know how to delete the NTFS partition on the hard drive?  Is it even possible?  I do not want to reload Windows XP on the computer, I am just trying to delete the partitions on it.

 Thanks for any advice.

This is a joke thread :lol:AARONRULZ1

No, but the help around here is.  Should have known better then to ask a bunch of children because you sure reply like one.

Maybe you have a really old copy of Windows 95 that was not bootable.  You might need to use a boot floppy.  Why are you not at least using Win98?basersx

I want to play some really old games without having to use DOSbox.  I have Windows 98, and I know it is bootable from the CD--my question is would 98 overwrite XP when I install it on the main hard drive?  I tried to install it on my second harddrive (E) but I would not let me change the destination.

Insert your Windows 95 CD, then restart your computer. When it boots from the CD, it should give you an option of choosing partitions. Then select E drive and Windows will install. Whenever you boot up your computer, the system will give you a choice of what OS to boot into.Cyborg-21

I tried what you just suggested, however, it booted me into XP without even reading the CDrom.  I changed to boot order to CDrom first, but that still did not work.
