Hi all i am having problems with formatting my 880k floppys, they are brand new disks but whenever i format them under workbench i get errors saying it cant read cylinders so i ran x-copy pro and im able to format them under that just curious to know if anyone has had similiar problems?
I've come across some disks that fail on particular cylinders, but if you do repeat formats (two or three or more times) you'll find it'll probably format. I don't use X-COPY, but if a disk doesn't format under Workbench's format tool (after a few attempts) then there's definitely something wrong with the disk or diskdrive, and I'd be cautious about trusting your data on such disks.
