Formatted drive successfully, and no, my hdd did NOT explode, lol.
These are the commands I used if anyone's going through a similar scenario:
diskpart>
clean
create partition primary size=300000
format fs=ntfs label="Media"
assign letter=d
create partition primary size=165000
format fs=ntfs label="System"
assign letter=c
exit
Seems ok. Although, because I did my window's partition second, does this mean my os will run slower because it's on the outer edge of the disk, ie, reader has to travel further to read/write information? Or is this effect inconsequential to the running of my system? Hhhmmm, just a thought anyways. But thanks anyway for everyone who helped me out - I'm most grateful.
Cheers,
Marty.
