ian	People still use floppies? Try your disk in another PC. Blow into the disk drive in case there is some dust on the magnetic heads. Also, make sure your disk doesn't have any fluff or dust on it. It might be fucked. Floppy disks are very unreliable media, I wouldn't recommend ever relying on them. Anyway, blank CDs are cheaper nowadays.

My thought.

Sign 78 that you're obsessed with Prince: You buy a John Prine album- just out of curiosity.
