C program? Do you mean the C language, or the C Drive?

Go to the properties of C drive and click on Disk Clean up it will take time because your system has huge unwanted data, but it will work wait for some time. Hope it will work !

i think your problem is that you r not logged in as administrator ....or its a normal windows error ..you know they do come once in a while ..\ntry this go to command prompt and try to format it \ntype FORMAT:E.G.F (whatever drive letter its assigned )\nand press enter \nit will tell u "insert disk and press enter"\npress enter again and it will start to format it \ngood luck

You do realize that if you do this, you will loose all the data on the drive AND the operating system if you perform it on the boot (C:) drive.\n\nOkay, you've been warned, whatever drive you want type in format c: (or whatever drive letter you want).\n\nThat's the simple way, a lot more commands are located here, http://www.computerhope.com/formathl.htm#01

From the DOS prompt, type Format c:

1-Format it,so it will be formated,2-Format it again,so it will be reformated.\n\nAbout deleting the hard drive...that's a pretty hard question.My knowledge is bad on physics.\n\nI sugest to get some lessons for begginers,or to call a technician so he could guess what you want to say.

Yes. From a DOS prompt, "format c:" will format the c drive... "format d:" will format just d. If you want C: to be bootable when you are done, make sure you use a "/s" switch at the end.

You didnt say whether it was a new of just reformatted HDD, sometimes you have to bite the bullet and start from scratch in the long run it takes less time doing it the right way. FIRST partition the HDD THEN format the HDD go to run type cmd that brings you to the command line then type format space drive letter colon (format c:) that is from the old days now if you need to format a floppy substitute a  for c Once the HDD is formatted correctly, e is usually a CD or DVD drive unless you have multiple HDDs the easiest way is to go to "my computer" and see what is there. if something is missing many times a cable has been disconnected so open the case and check to see all the connections are in place and tight

from the command prompt\n\nconvert drive_letter: /fs:ntfs\n\ne.g.:  convert c: /fs:ntfs

if u have win NT/2K/XP/Vista and use FAT/FAT32 then there is a command line program.\nStart command prompt and type:\nconvert [drive:] /FS:NTFS /X

Try adding double quote characters around the entire path. i.e.: path to 'my directory' from the C drive = "C:&#92;my directory&#92;"\n\nnote the quotes!
