A message window will then appear asking you to confirm that you wish to commit these changes.

After confirming that you wish to commit the changes, a new message screen should appear advising that the commit changes action was successful.

NOTE

A message window will appear following this step asking you if you wish to save a copy of the configuration to a floppy. You may do so at this time, as prompted by the screen display.

5.While still running Disk Administrator, click on the Tools pull-down menu, then select Format (see Figure 4–6).

The Format menu choices (see Figure 4–7) allow you to choose either FAT or NTFS. You must select one of these file system options for the disk to be usable.

You may also choose the Quick Format option. Select OK to begin the format proc- ess. For further information regarding these options, refer to your Windows NT documentation.

A message window appears advising you when the formatting is complete.

NOTE

A third format, HPFS, is not an available choice under Disk Admin- istrator. The HPFS format choice may only be made from a com- mand prompt window. Refer to your Windows NT documentation for more details on this subject.
