Re: Disc not formatted error



The date being 12 May 2007, Erving <erving@xxxxxxxxxx> decided to
write:

I use floppy discs to transfer Organizer data between my computer
and my friend's, on several occasions when I have put in my disc to
write back to it I have got the error 'Disc not formatted' although
it had read it earlier, and all other disc tried have produced the
same error.

[snip]

Can anyone suggest a cause as this is occuring with increasing
frequency?

Have you cleaned the heads with a cleaning disc?
