I know, I know....few people use these any more, but I a formatting a bunch of them to see if anyone on Freecycle can use them.

It's going well - but with some disks "Windows cannot complete the format".

I am using quick format - if I get that message, then I do the regular...but it usually still happens.

I'm going to go over the "also-rans" after I am done to see if the write-protect wasn't switched over properly.

Why else would a floppy not format?

Thanks.
