my new 1200 has pc0? on wb when i insert floppy

Ok thanks I have a look at that later tonite. Is it just the icon I move over to storage or are there any associdted files? Or is it a complete drawer to move over?

To be honest, it isn't doing any harm being there so I'd leave it if I was you.  It will come in handy if you want to transfer a file from a PC using a 720KB formatted floppy.  If you insert a PC formatted disk then your PC0 will come up with an icon and the disk name while DF0 will report an error.

Assuming you don't have network file sharing set up or a SUB solution on your Miggy then PC floppies can still be useful.  

If you really don't want it then open up your system DEVS/DOS Drivers folder and just drag the PC0 icon into STORAGE/DEVS/DOS Drivers.

The reason the icon annoys me is that i tend to keep a blank floppy disk in df0: to stop it from continuously ticking away if its left empty. By putting a blank disk in df0: i get an "empty" on wb (fine ok) and a pc0:?? which seems irrelevant to me... especially as i haven't even got a 3.5" floppy drive on my pc (and haven't for 5 years) so why would i want to transfer data from the pc on floppy when you can use a pcmcia cf card??

Why indeed.  But then again, why put a floppy disk in the drive when you could just use this:

Thanks Darrin

Where do i put that file in wb? Which drawer? Devs?

Hmm probably wbstartup?

To be honest, I'm not sure with that program.  I have NOCLICK installed on my Deneb Flash ROM.

WBStartup is where I'd guess too.
