Okay -- I just wanted to be sure you were using the FDISK with the FAT32 option.

Have you tried the using the FORMAT.COM that comes with the Windows95-Version B bootdisk downloaded from this site:
http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm

Be sure to download the file to a place on a (working) computer, and not directly to a floppy. You have to RUN the downloaded program to CREATE the BOOTDISK from the blank floppy disk you will supply.

Then use the BOOTDISK to boot the broken computer by turning the power on while the bootdisk is in the computer. It will bring you to "A:\>" which is where you type "FORMAT C: /S". Good luck. Keep us posted.
