Hi,

I have used this on a disc running a FAT partition, it will not work with NTFS.
If you delete BOOT.INI, NTLDR, BOOTSECT.DOS and NTDETECT.COM from your root
directory and then reboot your system from a DOS boot disc and then use SYS C: to recreate
the dos boot sector and load the basic dos OS files, you should then be able to delete the rest of NT and reinstall DOS and/or
windows.

With an AMI bios you will get warnings that the boot sector is about to be changed while using
the SYS C: command.

Hope trhis works for you.
