Hi Carolyn
I'm running win 98, but I presume it would work the same.
Insert your floppy
Go to the appropiate drive (mine is A)
Right click on the little computer in the upper left corner
The little menu will have format on it

If your windows explorer isn't on your desk top look under programs when you press the start button

Windows Explorer is a program that shows what's on your computer. Start>Programs> Windows Explorer or
Start>Programs> Windows Explorer depending on what OS you
are using. If you go into Windows Explorer and right click
3 1/2 Floppy (A:) one of the options is format.

Windows Explorer...

You may use FIND to locate the file EXPLORER.EXE, and once found, right click it and create a new shortcut. Once created, you can put the shortcut where you want it. If you right click the shortcut, you can select a different icon.
