    No, No, No.
    Nothing has failed.

    "Format not supported on drive C. Format terminated."
    Problem is:

    Format tried to format the drive and the drive specified is a RAMdrive.
    A RAMdrive is a bunch of memory locations on chips masquerading as a hard drive.

    The message is the result of a format c: command when the hard drive is set to "not installed" in CMOS and the RAMDRIVE.SYS driver loads for ramdrive from the floppy disk. The Format.com program was on a bootable floppy disk.

    Open your mind, not your computer.
