Thanks, I really need to find out if I can convert a 1.44 mb floppy to a 720K floppy on a pc.


Why?

I do know that a 1.44 drive will work with 720K disks.
What if the bios does not support 1.44 drives?

How old is the machine you're talking about? >20 years?

Oh no... don't say... COMMODORE PCs???  :eek:

OK, what you can do is desolder the density sensor switch in the drive. Depending on the type of switch (closing or opening type) you may have to bridge the line.
