Hi
I am trying to reformat my c drive - have done it before but having problems. Here is what i am doing:
1. start with boot disk in a drive and come to a:\
2. type in "format c: /s"
3. I get "bad command or file name message"
4. same result using c:\
5. same result using "format c:" command
I also tried starting in Windows and switching to dos but when I put in the "format c:" command i get the following message:
Drive c: is currently in use by another process. Aborting format.
I have nothing on this system except Windows 95 ( upgrading to 98) - no programs at all. When I hit alt, contrl, del there is nothing running except Explorer
Thanks for any help,
Wally B
