What do you mean "nothing happens"?

Does it just blink, and go back to a C: prompt?

Are you doing this in DOS, or in an MS-DOS Prompt through Windows?

What version of Windows are you using?

youll probably want to boot your comp from a floppy to do this. make a boot disk, boot with it, then, while still on the floppy drive type format c: if youre working from c drive, it will usually refuse to format itself.
