    I couldn't figure out when I booted to DOS from a floppy the other day why my hard drive wasn't visible. NTFS, completely forgot about it.

    I use multiple disk drives' you can pick up some small drives on Ebay cheap , partition it format it, install dos and in your bios choose a different drive to boot. Of course you will have to change your boot drive option when you want to boot windws or dos.
