No, but I know the feeling, I always get weird things happening to mine. Last week I had to get a guy in, thought my floppy drive had gone out, told me every floppy, even new ones were "write protected", come to find out it was WalMarts fault, bunch of 50 floppies that got magnetized some way. Would have worked fine if I had reformatted them all! But I had paid for formatted ones, so took them back, used the first one of a new box of Sony ones last night AND it told me it was "write protected"! Don't know yet where we go from here. Cost me $50 to find out that the disks were defective! Then when I bought new ones, I had thrown away part of the defective ones, so they took the new ones out of my box to make up the 50! I'm not a really happy camper with Walmart at the moment. Appreciate the Farrar info, let me know what I have that you might want, can send you a descendancy chart?
