I'm having a problem with getting the error message "Cannot format a network drive".
I've been trying to reformat my hard drive and install windows 95 from a CD I have. I've already made the boot disk and am doing everything right except it comes up with that error message every time I restart from the boot disk.
Is there a way to make the hard drive a non-network drive so I can format it? (btw, I'm currently running ME so I'll need the solution to work for that os)
thanks!

start by using Fdisk to delet any partitions and recreating them. then try formatting, it could be as simple as that. ill do some research and see what i can find out.
