Floppy Drives
I would have continued the post but I keep getting failures in the
connecting to this newsgroup. I am not having problems anywhere else. Gary S. Terhune wrote: Glen, I don't have any dial-up these days, not even a modem in my 98 machine, but I recall that one of the default setting in a DUN connectoid is to "Log on to network", and that this is what OP should disable. Perhaps on the same Servers tab? No modem installed on this machine either although I do have a 3.5 inch drive for backwards compatibility. Also, it is nice to use a floppy that if you end up losing it the floppy then at least the information on the floppy should be backed up on your machine and the lost cost of the floppy is next to nothing. Hopefully, the data that you lose is not worth much as well, however. The only other big limitation is that floppies hold such a small amount of data -- only 1.44 mb's of information |
