I removed all items in the close program window except explorer and systray. Same error was given when I right clicked on D and selected format.

I then went on a search for my win 95 boot floppy. It was no where to be found so I tried to create a new one. I used the Add/Remove programs direction to create the boot but after 3 attempts it was unable to complete the process. The errors ranged from bad sector on disc (I assume it meant bad sector on floppy: I tried 3 seperate floppys) to an inability to find necessary files to create the boot.

I am quite sure I need to reload win 95 but I first need to format the D drive so I can transfer critical files over before I clean up C drive.

I do have a working copy of win 95 on the D drive but I forget how to tell the puter to boot up using this copy instead of my C drive copy.
