if you used ntfs you won't get a c: prompt. i'd boot from floppy type fdisk /mbr then type fdisk hit option 4 i think it is been awhile (delete partion) then select the option after that(non ms-dos partition). that should correct any problems. When you relod the os, it will repartion your drive. and format. Not this will erase everything on your hard drive.
