I have installed XP on a new hard drive and everything is
fine. I have an old floppy formatted from an NT computer I
want to open in my XP(home addition)but when I click on
the A drive it says "not formatted" How do I format this
floppy so I can open it up on my XP computer.

Thx

Do *not* attempt to format it. If you do so, you will lose
everything on it.
