On NT? With format.exe? On C:?
I just tried it, with the "/x" (force unmount) switch:
it fails, files still in use. I guess it would be possible
in theory, especially if you wrote your own kernel-mode code,
but the standard tools check for this.
I think maybe a non-system partition can be forced, and apps
with open files will just get errors, but the OS won't let you
destroy itself while its in use.
