Use the commmand "fdisk". Then follow screen directions. To totally reformat and reclaim all space on the disk-- 1. Use the boot floppy to boot to a:. Run fdisk. Choose "yes" if you want to reclaim all the space on the hard disk. 2. Click on the option to view partion info. 3. delete all the partitions. 4. Reboot to a: drive. 5. run fdisk again. 6. Click on add a partition and follow direction. 7. Reboot. 8. Now you can run format. Use the command syntax: format c:/u/s. You will get the hang of it after just a few tries, at most.
I bumped my machine from 256 to 768 and had loads of problems. Removed one stick of 256MB and it works fine. This problem is documented on Microsoft's website...and yet they don't offer an acceptable solution.
