> Probably a dumb question, have you formatted C?<

Yes, I have, using WinNT's Explorer, NT's format command from an NT-DOS
prompt and using PartitionMagic. The first two will probably be the same
code executed, while PartitionMagic might do it's own thing instead of just
calling the NT format command.

I cannot use a true DOS format command, as (1) under DOS I cannot access the
FAT partition and (2) NT will not allow me to run the DOS command, and I do
not have another operating system to boot from except NT and OpenDOS
provided by the Drive Image boot disk.
