2.88 meg floppy question
hi i didnt know where the right place to put this was so i figuerd, id put it here and if it gets moved ok , ersonally i couldnt find annything so heres the question
i rescently bought 3 brand new 2.88 floppy drives from ebay, they wont format a 1.44 floppy eaven with the dos switch to force it to format it as a 1.44, now it should function like a 1.44 if i tell bios it is a 1.44, drive trouble is i think they are bad and i should contact the person who sold em to me,, yeah and ive tried a few machines they were made in 1997, i have a ibm 350 layin around and have tried them in like 4 pcs no dice
all i get is track 0 bad format terminated, but floppy formats fine in any other drive..
are they bad , or what.,, probably not in the or what catagory... thanxz in advance
