Re: [ARSCLIST] Thanks! Was: *Windows* Floppy Disc Blues--aka data recovery software suggestions?
A lot of floppies also have mechanical failure (which has happened to me
a surprising amount of times. You can also try putting the disk in a
different drive. I've found that sometimes one drive may not read a
particular disk while another one will.

Folks,
Just wanted to say thanks for all the help! Ended up giving BadCopy Pro
a whirl and--for my circumstances and my mix of files at least
(WordPerfect and MSWord)--it worked like a total charm.
It's too bad I had to spend the money though. I never expect to have a
3.5" floppy croak on me again. Ever. Never Ever. I'm completely
convinced that this was a total, freakish fluke. I mean, trouble with a
3.5" floppy? Come on!
Best,
andy
