I have been pretty busy with snow / ice, and did not get a chance to format my C drive. I asked a week or so ago as to how to do so. I was given many suggestions, and nothing seems to work. I have little to loose in al reality, and was told by my internet provider that it was my only way. I also talked to everyone except Bill Gates in person--over 4 1/2 hrs at microsoft, and they came to the same conclusion--must format c drive.
I have tried a few different comands, and my screen (black) says--
The type of file system is NTFS
WARNING, ALL DATA ON NON-REMOVABLE DISK DRIVE C WILL BE LOST! Proceed with Format (Y?N)? =====I type y and get this message
Format cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. Format may run if this volumn is dismounted first. ALL OPEN HANDLES TO THIS VOLUME WOULD THEN BE INVALID. Would you like to force a dismount on this volume? (Y/N)
I then type Y===== Then my screen goes to my windows xp with all the icons---blue sky-green grass etc.
Remember I ain't had much school housin an all---my mom was a prostitute, and the hung my dad for stealin horses--so don't expect much from me OK.
I tried to google comands-comands C: and a whole bunch of other attempts with nothing coming up.
I'm using vista on my sons computer now, but he has to use it alot--takes it with him, so i'm kind of limited for a responce.
I was simply amazed at the rapid responce by so many helpful folks with my last post. I feel asking elswhere other than at YT is kinda like cheating on my wife--just can't do that.
So A very gratful thank you to all that responded on my last post--and thanks in advance for this one.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
