Remove the floppy disk and reboot the computer to the C: prompt (by putting "/s" at the end of the format command, you've made the hard drive bootable).Īt this point, simply insert the Windows 98 SE disk into the CD-ROM drive. This will format the drive (erase it completely). When the computer boots to the A: prompt, type "Format c: /s" (without the quotation marks).
Choose the option to boot the computer with CD-ROM support.
To format your drive, you will need your Windows 98 boot disk and boot the computer up with this disk inserted in the floppy drive. If you make a copy of your personal files, you can copy them back on to the computer's hard drive after you reinstall the operating system. If you don't back up your personal files before you reformat, you'll lose them as a result of the format process. This is why you need to back up your important data first before formatting.
