Part-empty floppy refuses to fill up.
A friend is having trouble with floppy disks which the system will not
fill. They take about 800 kB and then reject any further files. He has lots of small text files and I wondered if there is an upper limit to the number of files W. will store on a floppy. Can anyone suggest what might be causing this problem, please? -- John |

There is a limit as to how many files can be copied to the root directory... try putting them in a folder |
