Dear all,
There is a problem with my windows 2000 computer:
The problem is when inserting a new floppy disk, it seems
to be that windows keeps the history of the contents of
the floppy, i tried to insert another 5 floppies, the same
contents appear on the screen.
What can I do to open the floppies?
Regards,
