That would require DarkAngel, (great TV Show by the way) to wipe out the current OS. that is a lot of work!!!!
Most Linux OSs don't require you to install them first. Mandrake and RedHat both will install on a 2nd partition with a Windows OS already on the system.
Just follow my instructions and use one of these Versions that allows you to install with Windows already loaded.
Some may require you to load it first like SCO or even an old Solaris OS that I had a few years ago. Some OSs require they be in control of the Active partition, but most of them don't require this.

NTFSFIX(8) System Manager's Manual NTFSFIX(8)
NAME
ntfsfix - fix common errors and force Windows to check NTFS
SYNOPSIS
ntfsfix [options] device
DESCRIPTION
ntfsfix is a utility that fixes some common NTFS problems. ntfsfix is NOT a Linux version of chkdsk. It only repairs some fundamental NTFS
inconsistencies, resets the NTFS journal file and schedules an NTFS consistency check for the first boot into Windows.
You may run ntfsfix on an NTFS volume if you think it was damaged by Windows or some other way and it can't be mounted.
OPTIONS
Below is a summary of all the options that ntfsfix accepts. Nearly all options have two equivalent names. The short name is preceded by -
and the long name is preceded by --. Any single letter options, that don't take an argument, can be combined into a single command, e.g.
-fv is equivalent to -f -v. Long named options can be abbreviated to any unique prefix of their name.
-h, --help
Show a list of options with a brief description of each one.
-V, --version
