Are there more partitions on that disk?
Does that disk have an ACTIVE partition? (You can verify and change that in fdisk)

I did all of them above..
I formatted HDD first at 6Gb then re-formatted it at 2 Gb then I reformatted,deleted all partitions and reduced it to 1GB(1027 MB).
I tried "format C: /S" again and again. Last time my DOS 6.22 installed without any problem after I changed 2nd disc. Three of them are working and one bootdisc,all from "https://winworldpc.com/home". I will try to install Win95 OR2.5 tomorrow to 5 GB part but I have doubt if HDD can work both at FAT16 and FAT32 type.
I will inform you tomorrow. I hope during Windows 95 installation I will not have problem with recognition of CD ROM drive despite it is showed at BIOS and starting process.
