Answer

Hello,

Start DOS by going to:

Start -> Run -> command.com

The format comand is very straight forward. To format the D drive, type:

format d: <enter>

You can add other options to the format command, but this is rarely necessary. For more details on using the format command see:

Let me know if you have more questions.

Good luck!
