Solve : WANT TO CONVERT 5.25 FLOPPU? |
|
Answer» I come across some old 5.25 floppy that I would like to SAVE. I checked my BIOS9(thinking I could add a 5.25 drive) but It shows as only supporting 3.5 floppy. Does any body know of a way I can convert these to a format that I can use? Yea I know but most computers now days don't support 3.5 floppy let alone 5.25I have yet to hear about a computer that doesn't support 3.5 drives. It may not be shipped with one, but the drive will still function if you hook one up.Quote from: Deerpark on July 25, 2007, 09:30:26 AM I have yet to hear about a computer that doesn't support 3.5 drives.

You heard of one now - my Shuttle ST62K which I bought in 2005 has no floppy header on the motherboard, and it was not the only such PC on the market. It is a very small size PC, and I guess they did everything they could to save space. I am happy to use bootable pen drives, I bought a 1 GB pen drive today for £6.99 in UK money, that's about $14 US. I STAND corrected then. I've never had much interest in these MICRO form factors, too few upgrade options. Quote from: Deerpark on July 25, 2007, 11:40:22 AM I stand corrected then. I've never had much interest in these micro form factors, too few upgrade options. I spent 10 years upgrading PCs... You always end up with a hodge podge of old and new. I am not a gamer so I don't need an AGP slot, 2 hdd bays and an optical are enough storage, the P4 3.0 GHz HYPERTHREADING cpu and 1 GB RAM are still OK for my needs... I'll put all the upgrade money I saved up towards another PC maybe next year. |
