I have Window’s 10, Window’s 7, Window’s XP and I found on eBay a person that had owned a computer store and had for sale a brand new Window’s 98 SE computer still in its box with keyboard, Microsoft mouse and all the driver disk for the motherboard and all the hardware installed. I have always enjoyed playing with computers. I started playing with computers when there was only DOS 3.2 with 8 bit XT computers with CGA monitors. A low cost way to access your 1.44 floppies if you have any. The next time I want to unplug it I will go through the Safely Remove hardware Icon as I would to eject a thumb nail drive and see it that will work. I booted back up, plugged the floppy drive in and Window’s 10 set it up again with no problem. So I unplugged the drive, held the left shift key down and shut down.

It's literally like selling a USB turntable that can't play your old LP record collection - it can only play "new LPs"? This has to be hands-down the most ridiculous, misrepresented product I've ever seen offered on Amazon. Why else would anyone want to go back two decades and use this archaic technology? Of course we're all buying this to access old data on old disks. I mean, seriously, who would want to use this as new storage media? It's cheaper and exponentially more storage space to just use a USB thumb drive. In other words, unless you're using new floppies that were formatted in this USB drive, then they're simply not going to work.

If you meet this issue, please try different disks or return the item to Amazon for full refund." Older product disks may also not have the media descriptor byte. Some old preformatted floppy disks do not contain a media descriptor byte. Or this problem occurs on disks that do not contain a media descriptor byte in the BIOS parameter block (BPB) of the boot sector. Please try to use this floppy disk on different computers? It is a possibility that the data on the floppy drive has gone bad.Ģ. "Floppy Disk is Not Accessible, Not Formatted, or Not Recognized by Windows? It even says as much in the two-page documentation that comes with the drive (even though there's zero mention of that fact in the product description): I discovered a bunch of old floppies (including some really classic games) that I wanted to try get working in VDOS, etc., on my Windows 10 PC, but this drive doesn't read old floppies.
