Top Replies

Is the laptop equipped with a floppy drive? What type of files can be found on the floppy disk? Which software is currently being utilized on the laptop?

Steve Bailey inquired about the presence of a floppy drive on the laptop, the contents of the floppy, and the software being utilized. He mentioned having an external floppy A drive with the GE9030 program on it, able to view the contents but facing difficulty downloading to the laptop.

What is the name and file extension of the program file saved on the floppy disk? Knowing this will help determine the necessary programming software required to work with the file(s) on the floppy. If you're having trouble downloading the file to your laptop even though the external floppy drive is connected, it could be an issue with compatibility between the file system on the floppy and the operating system of the laptop. This could result in difficulty transferring the file or corrupted file contents. Please provide more details on the specific error message or issue encountered while trying to access the file.
