- When I tried to format a floppy in my A: drive the other day everything was
- very, very slow!. I am running GA (revision 6.311) on an ISA bus machine.
- Drive A: has a 3.5" floppy and has never shown any problems with reading or
- writing them. I've never tried to format before (having had pre-formatted
- disks).
-
- Does anybody know what might be wrong? I thought floppy problems were only
- with beta versions of OS/2 2.0.
-
- I will notify IBM here in Australia.
