Solve : MS-DOS trouble with changing to different drive...?

Answer»

Running: Vista 64-bit

ok, i just made a bootable msdos floppy disk using the format way, and clicking the box, and formatting it and whatnot. typical stuff. Sadly, this is where it goes horribly wrong. I set it to boot before my hard drive, so it goes: Floppy, Hard Drive, Removable disk, Network.

so i boot what im retty sure is DOS, and i get the command prompt that normally pops up.
I try and change the drive from A: to C: but it wont LET me. any solutions?

these are all the combinations ive tried so far to no AVAIL, and yes, i know half wont do much of anything:

cd..
cd C:
cd C:/
cd C:\
cd
cd A: (hehe, this worked :p)

and i think thats all ive done so far..

anyways, anybody know whats up?C: and hit Enter.VISTA 64-Bit .... Your trying to get to a NTFS C: drive that is not accessible through DOS....You cant see C: from DOS unfortunately unless your C: drive is FAT32 any IDEA how i CAN.im looking at a program call NTFSDOS, which looks like it might work, but alas, being the pathetic noob i am T.T i dont EXACTLY know what to do to get it working.

any help out there that could give simple and concise instructions on what to do?
