Thank you guys alot, I've never had problems formatting on my computer, but we couldn't figure it out on my friend's computer. I'll tell him that solution, which I'm pretty sure will work.
"Simply stating you cannot format a disk from which are booting. " <<I never realized this, so that was my problem.
pcdoc4christ and Hopester Doofus, it's people like you who are legends. To deal with the seemingly obvious that if even one person hadn't realized, it would help them out alot.
This has got to be my favorite group of forum people I've talked to(just based off this first impression).
Thanks again,
Adam
