My computer seems to have a Trojan, and I want to format the hard drive. So under MS-DOS I entered FORMAT c:/S
but it said it was invalid. I don't know who renamed FORMAT, maybe Lenovo did it ^^55^^55^^ (I'm using a Lenovo Kaitian series machine). What should I do, experts?

Boot with a boot disk, then format it, give that a try.

Teamwork !

Are you using DOS from within Windows? If so then it definitely won't work. The operating system is on drive C, would it let itself format itself? Wouldn't that be suicide? As Mr. nre said, using a boot disk will do it.

If it's WIN98, you can press F8 during startup and then enter DOS mode; you can format the hard drive that way too.

It won't work under pseudo-DOS.
It only works under real DOS.
