It's called something else...

Yes, I _understand_ that.

It is an integral part of the XP OS, and as such, the OS must be
installed before you can use it. It isn't like the stand-alone Fdisk
where you can boot to freeDos and partion the Hard drive. Big
difference.

I suppose if you limit yourself to only fixing a system with that
system's corrupted system, that may be true.

I'm not going to argue with you Heinz ketchup. You're too thick (
according to all the ketchup ads I see on TV).

Wow. Haven't heard that, er, insult? since fourth grade.
