I think what you are trying to do is format the c drive while windows
is running (asuming c is systemroot), while with good operrating
system this is quite posible with windows it is not posible, you will
have to use a xp install disk to format C, you should be able to
format D with out problems (again, this is asuming systemroot is C)
