Ran into a problem...I got to number 3 below....it tells me there are "no logical DOS Drives to delete" What should I do now?

1. Delete Primary DOS Partition
2. Delete Extended DOS Partition
3. Delete Logical DOS Drive(s) in the Extended DOS Partition
4. Delete Non-DOS Partition

6.) Press 3 to select Delete Logical DOS Drive(s) in the Extended DOS Partition menu option, and then press Enter.

If there is no logical dos drive then skip it and goto the next step. For that matter, if the drive is FAT16 there wont be a non-dos partition either so you MIGHT can skip step 4 as well.
