    I am reformatting the harddrive on a Gateway 2000, and one the startup disk loads and I put in the command "format C:" and am prompted with "format not supported on drive C:" I don't know where to go from here. Can someone please help me?

    What OS is on the HD and what is the disk you are booting? DOS, Win95, Win98 or are you booting a CDROM?
