Little longer but good answer:

1- Boot from a floppy.
2- run fdisk to delete all partitions.
3- after deleting the partitions, reboot from the floppy.
4- run in the DOS command line: fdisk /mbr two times.
5- reboot
6- check with fdisk /status if there is still a partition in there.

Please be more specific as to waht error does your fdisk program gives to you...

Bye,
Erick.
