I have one 40 gig hard drive w/ 3 partitions. They are all fat32. I want to know, if I format drive c, my active partition, will the other 2 partitions be ok and the data be accessible once i put a new OS on my pc? Thanks.

If you are just formatting and installing the new OS back into C:\, the rest of the partitions will be intact. They will be accessible with all your current files there.
