Format has a bug that gives the error message you describe; however, I thought it was only for formatting hard disks > 32 meg. Anyways my 4.01 came with a patch disk that came with a new version of format and a patch to the secondary cache (comes up if you use expaneded memory and have > 32 meg disk partitions and some more conditions ). kenneth kindsfater
