Solve : Problem Formatting C Drive? |
|
Answer» I am trying to format the c drive on my windows 98 computer. After I type "format c:" at the command prompt, I get a message saying "Format cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. Format may run if this volume is dismounted first. WOULD you like to FORCE a DISMOUNT on this volume?" Then when I type "y", i get "Cannot Lock the drive. The Volume is still in use". I am really confusedQuote I am trying to format the c drive on my windows 98 computer.

I am really confused So this is not DOS, but a command prompt from within WIndows? BIG DIFFERENCE. Boot from a DOS boot disk and try again. |
