I don't know of any utilities like you're talking about. I would suggest
that you go ahead and kill the partitions using a dos disk (delete "non dos
partition" usually does the trick), then format it with fat, and run
scandisk or another utility. Then try again with the W2k/ntfs install.

I need to be able to run scandisk on it. Theres a bad sector and windows2000
wont install. Its alreally formatted at ntfs. When I go to reformat it using
the cd or setup disks it fails.

Why not boot from CD?
Partition Magic can format NTFS drives, although I have never had any luck
with that feature.

Is there a disk like the old 98 boot disk that can fdisk, format, and
scandisk a ntfs drive?
I hate having to wait 30 minutes to run through the 4 windows2000 boot disks
just to format a drive.
