Hi animal007uk, thank you brilliant problem solved. I was trying to recover some very old archived reports that I never expected to read again. This is a super forum with most helpful members. Thanks to all.

Thank you again Tatty One, time is rapidly over taking the need for me to solve the problem for free. It is not the end of the world and I have learnt and enjoyed the use of a forum as a new boy. Thank you for your interest and advice

Hi qubit, have tried 4 floppy drives no change. I have put it down to experience, learnt my lesson, and decide to rebuild the data. It is not worth the hassle to buy badcopy from abroad. Really appreciate your interest and help.

Thank you qubit, the drive has been reading several floppies ok. I have a spare drive which i will sub as you suggest. Lesson learnt must switch totally to memsticks. Thank you for your help.

Thank you very much for replying Tatty One, yes badcopy can see the files but the free download wont go beyond just showing that the files are there unless you buy the product $38. Before forking out $38 I am wondering if I could use cloning to get the files on to a HDD or CD

Hi, I have files that I know are good on a floppydisk. On trying to access them a message says the disk need formatting. I have tried to use PhotoRec from the UBCD but it will apparantly only read HDD or CD/DVD. Can anyone suggest a freeware program that might work. Thank you for your help.
