You can create and format partitions within Administrative Tools. I had
a version of Redhat on one of mine before I moved it to a computer all
by itself. The online help had detailed instruction of how to do it
through Admin Tools. See if it's still on their site.

No Vista System Recovery disks?

You can also get this from the Microsoft web site....that's where I got
mine.

Start -> Control Panel -> Help
Then type in the word "partition" in the search field.
