I can't see how you would be able to format it from within the VM.
Format it from XP, then share it so it can be accessed as a shared network drive from within the VM. This works in Vista, so it should be OK in XP. -- Jeff Richards MS MVP (Windows - Shell/User) "skater_9119" wrote in message ... i am running the vm on my windows xp sp3 desktop i am trying to format my flash drive in windows 98 my question is is there a way to use my flash drive in the vm in windows 98 so i can format it |
