I keep hoping I will do something unintentional that will fix this, but it hasn't happened yet.
The data backup goes fine, then I'm prompted for a blank formatted 1.44 Meg disk in Drive A:.
So I format a floppy and click the OK button. I get an error popup with no explanation on it. So I shell out to DOS and format it that way. Same thing.
To make sure that the drive, and disk are OK. I copied a PDF file to the floppy and opened it. It worked just fine.
What am I missing?
Will XP accept anything besides a 1.44 Meg floppy? If so, where can I set that option?
I don't know how many times I've tried this, and I'm backing up the data to an old HP DLT 4000 tape drive, so it takes about 90 minutes to find out that I have failed again. Frustrating.
