My WinMe got a virus. I decided to switch back to win95. I want to format my harddrive (by that I mean erase everything - isn't that what format means?) The win95 cd and disk couldn't do it automatically.

So I wrote format c: - that seemed to work, but I had the win95 boot disk in and my win95 cd in the drive - and after the 'format c:' stuff - the win95 cd prompts me, and Im stucked. What it says is:

E:\WIN95>

It's probably basic, I know - but I would really appreciate if someone had a minute to help me out here. Thanks for your time.
