As I couldn't write anything to this disk (Probably a corrupted disk,
eh?), I tried another disk. And although still no format showing, I
was able to write to it. Also, when I checked on my C drive, format did
show (a very risky test, eh?) Does this mean that if a disk is already
formatted, which I think mine are, then format doesn't show (at all) in
My Comuter/Files? Or, what does it mean?
