Where the hell u get a 800MB CD for 6 bucks ???

 

[blacklight]

128 MB pen drive ~= 88* (1.44 MB floppy)

Moral of the story: Invest in a pen drive and store almost 88 times more data than that of a normal floppy drive.

a pen drive is more reliable and more useful in the long run

I too faced this problem when I used to use floppy disks. I was using 2000 though. Wonder what the reason was

nothing is useless ....everything is worth something if you think it is worth ......you see its all in your brain ....slap yourself if you get a thought of this sort ny other time.

you get floppy-disk drive cleaners out there in the market which does a very good job for you costing say between 10 to 20 bucks ....also try gettin the branded ones ...not the cheap local ones. make it a point to clean your drive atleast once a month if you r a frequent floppy user or if you arnt clean the drive just before using your floppy ....make sure you leave it idle for say 5 mins after cleaning.

and as usual try some of the advices mentioned earlier by some of the experts (if they really r) :roll:

even then if you arnt able to recover/use your floppies or floppy drive .....its time you discarded either of these and replace it with a new one. good-luck
