I attempted to format my hard disk recently. When I entered 'format c:/s' at the prompt I was told 'Insufficient memory to load system files'. My computer has plenty of RAM. What should I do?
DOS - which is what you are using when you are formatting your hard disk - can only see a little of your system's memory. So the amount of RAM in your computer has no bearing on the problem. The solution is to format the disk using 'format c:' (in other words, without the /s switch) and then use the SYS command 'sys c:' to transfer the system files afterwards.
