XP eating floppies...
« on: April 17, 2005, 03:11:10 AM »
Is it me, or my imagination, or is anyone else experiencing a noticable a tendancy for XP to kill 1.44MB/880K Floppies during write operations?

My machine eats floppies like I go through pizza (and beer)...

The funny thing, is that I have been able to repair many of these disks using an older Win98 machine, or even the old 880 K floppies with Amiga's MSH or CROSSDOS(ironic or what???).
