Thread: Floppy Disk in Windows 7

I am using a computer system installed with windows 7 ultimate. I am trying to format my system with the help of a floppy disk but it will take more time to format and when it complete, it gives message 'Unable to complete Format'. To set up with, I thought the drive itself was damaged hence then I installed it with a known operational one, same thing happen.

You just need to follow these simple steps for doing this.

• Go to Start> Programs, choose Administrative Tools, and Computer Management.

• Then choose Storage> Disk Management. At the bottom or top, choose the partition to format and right click it and after that Format.

• Select a volume name, a type of partition.

• If you did not have private data on the disk, select the Quick Format option.

To do this, follow the given steps:

1. Insert the boot disk in the floppy drive and reboot the PC.

2. At this time, it will load the tools contained on the Dos boot disk: you just type the following command: format C:

Follow the steps given below to resolve this problem:

• Insert a blank floppy in the drive

• after that just type the command: Format a: / s

• The argument / s means "copy system files"
