Today marked my one year anniversary of blogging…On February 16, 2005, I made a post called “BLOG LAUNCH!” where I announced I was changing the jbctech.com domain over to my personal blog.
Thank you all for your contributions and support!
So, over the last few days, I’ve had some issues with my convertible notebook. I’m not going to go into details other than I believe I have a bad hard disk…but in the troubleshooting process, I discovered a very cool utility called the “Virtual Floppy Drive.” Today, you will have a very difficult time finding a computer (notebook, really) that has an internal floppy…unless you specifically ordered it that way. Well, good news – the Virtual Floppy Drive will emulate any type of floppy media and create the appropriate drive A or drive B. It also has the ability to mount a floppy image. This is nice when you have that driver that requires a blank formatted floppy disk – simply load up the app, tell it to mount drive A as a 1.44mb floppy drive and away you go. I used it and then copied the contents of the new A drive to my USB drive. This is a great utility!
