    Have a quick question if someone can help. i have a Dell Latitiude CP Notebook and it has a 6.4GB HD in it and have FDISK and cleaned the disk and have deleted all partitions and reset a partition and made it active. But since I only have the CD drive I am having trouble remembering the script to find the "Format" command. dir *s I can't remember what it is so I can format the disk now that the partition has been set? Any help??

    Thanks

    Format C:. What OS are you planning on installing onto said laptop?

    Once the you get the drive Format C: /s, then you should hopefully have no problem installing Win98 on it.
