"CONVERT is not available for RAW drives"

When trying to convert FAT32 to NTFS I get the following
response: "CONVERT is not available for RAW drives".
Drive is new 120 MB Master IDE (not SCSI). Any ideas?

A 'raw' drive is one that has not been formatted. You need to format your
new hard drive before you can use it. Format it with NTFS (so there's no
need to convert.)
