how do i format sony floppy disk in dos 5.0

So if any of you have an idea, let me know.īasically, people are talking about recovering old files that have text information on them. I can buy a program for about $40 but seems like a lot to pay to do a good turn. So far I have tried anadisk, omnidisk, omniflop, and some other one. Anyone else have a copy so I can try it? Or maybe one of you might have another program I could try. One site listed here has removed the file since it was not exactly public domain. I know of one called 22disk but cannot find a copy of it. As the old saying goes, 'No good deed goes unpunished', so I have been having quite a time trying to find a program which will let my pc (in any dos or windows mode) read those disks. Then he would be able to print them on a normal printer and also send them to other relatives so they could read them or also print them.

I have an 86 yr old friend who is in need of being able to move his files to a pc where I have some programs which can convert them to word etc. I have read some of the posts about reading disks in a pc which have been used to save files from a brother word processor.

Hi to all - hope I can get help and give some in return
