I used a freeware program it was a few years ago and on one of my  
laptops. I am not sure of the name.
I did a quick search and    http://monolingual.sourceforge.net/       
came up I am not sure if that is what I used.

I bought it at micro center a few weeks ago. (sales is most likely  
over). What the other poster said is true about the 128 limit in  
these machines. I have installed an Ultra ATA board so I am able to  
use the large drive.
