Howdy everyone!!

Hope everyone had a great Christmas and soon Happ New Year....

Trying to help my brother format his pc, over the phone 1200 miles away...lol...

We fdisk and deleted partitions and then restarted, at the command prompt he typed- format c: and it said unknown command or something like that.. I have no clue why it is doing this and just was wondering what I'm doing wrong? it is for windows 98....

Thanks

Howdy tenmm,

Hope you had a great Christmas....

I will call him and ask the name of the drive, all I know is it is fairly old and that is about it...lol...

I forgot to add that, yes we did create a new partition before trying to format..

Did he make the partition active?
