floppy disk

[Guest]

I can't read JPEG files off my floppy that was created using windows95 with FAT32, now have windows XP with NTSF, how can I get around this?

This may be a reappearance of the NTFS bug on showing color. Explorer, Tools, Folder Options, View unchec
"Show encrypted or compressed NTFS folders in color"

In my previous post, instead of uncheck it should read "check".

Hi Joey,

I have had problems with floppies ever-since going to XP. I have tried every
suggestion made and have come to the conclusion that there is a fault in the
drivers in some XP disks. Some people have no problems and others do.

I have installed the 3 mode driver from the link in the following article
and since used floppies in my XP machine, as well as a 98 and 2K machine
with no problems. It is a recent installation and have not had a chance to
really see if it is a cure. You may want to give it a try. The article is
rather hard to follow but, the necessary information is in there.

You're welcome. I hope it works for you and, continues to work for me as
well.

I didn't have any floppy problems in XP sofar.
But it's very irritating that many people have those problems and no
solution is offered by MS.
