Diskette Problems
If you have trouble accessing data on a diskette, try the
following steps:
1.
You may have inserted the diskette upside-down or it may
not be inserted all the way. Remove the diskette from the
drive and reinsert it with the label facing up. (See Chapter
3 for detailed instructions on inserting and removing
diskettes.)
2.
If reinserting the diskette does not solve the problem and
you have access to another diskette drive of the same type,
place the diskette in the other drive and repeat the
operation. If you can successfully repeat the operation in the
new drive, the trouble may be in your diskette drive. See
“Diskette Drive Problems,” below.
3.
Check to see if you have inserted the right type of diskette.
The diskette type normally appears on the manufacturer’s
label. Here are the guidelines:
In a drive that has a storage capacity of 1.2MB, such as
drive A, use 5 ¼-inch, double-sided, high-density, 96
TPI diskettes. You can also use 360KB diskettes in this
drive, but if you write to a 360KB diskette in this drive,
you may have trouble using the diskette in a 360KB
drive later.
In a drive that has a storage capacity of 360KB, use
5 ¼-inch, double-sided, double-density, 48 TPI
diskettes. You cannot use 1.2MB diskettes in this drive.
In a drive that has a storage capacity of 1.44MB, use
3 ½-inch, double-sided, high-density, 135 TPI diskettes.
This type of drive can also read and write to 720KB
diskettes.
