Thanks! 
I had copied them to my hard drive already. I have to find more of those same 
disks to see if there are problems with them. 
they come from the store where I go for my sewing machine embroidery classes. 
They are black sony disks. I don't want to lose the designs! 
On my old computer, when the floppy drive died, that was the response I got on 
all of the disks that I put in it. So this concerned me with this one I just 
got!

On the main machine that recognises them - copy the data to the hdd.
Then format them on the new machine and put the data back and try again
- sometimes works

I bought an external floppy drive.
I tried it last night - and all of the floppy's that I put 
in work fine - except for 2.
they come up and say - disk is not formated, do you want to 
format now.
Problem is - these disks have data on them, and can be read 
on the floppy drive in my main computer.
What do you think? is there a problem with the floppy drive? 
or those disks?
thanks!
Cris
