47087 2002-05-04 09:20:00 what are you booting with?

you can't format c: from windows(assuming windows is on c:) boot from a floppy. make sure it has fdisk.exe and formatt.exe on it.

But be warned:

Make sure you have you dos cd drivers on you floppy so that you can access your cd under Dos. Otherwise you may be unable to access your cd drive.
