It used to work but doesn't NOW. Can anyone tell what to do next. I have
about a million files stored on 3 1/2" disks, and if I can't get to them ---
I'll shoot myself (and Bill Gates, and everybody at Microsoft!!)
I've been told it's a driver problem, but WHICH driver do I go after?? I
can't find my backside with both hands, much less anything on these frappin'
forums.
