yes, I have a dual boot on this Hard Drive... I split the Hard drive with two partitions, one is a Nfts file system for windows xp and the other a Fat32 for Linux Ubuntu... what I need to do, is reformat the partition of the Linux portion, so that I can reinstall a different version of Linux. I did try to go through the disk management on the NFTS windows xp portion to reformat the partition of Linux, but it does not give me an option. do you have any suggestions? thanks for your help my friend

I think It is not possible to partition/reformat a linux partition through windows. You need to use a linux boot disk to do so

Let me see how you can accomplish that. 1) If possible copy the files from your My Documents folder in C drive to other drives. 2) Or use a disk partitioning software to enlarge the C drive
