NAM Access Backup "Check Floppy" 2

[superflykid1]

I'm trying to backup our HD which is on it's last leg, and when I try to back up (Access Codes), it tells me to "check floppy" What does this mean? I've tried different floppies, and made sure to format some of them...I need this backed up if I get another HD, right?

Bah

Glitch on 3.0 or 4.0 I think.

Umm...bah...? Is there a fix??

This HD isn't supposed to be working right now...so I'm on limited time!! (It clicks)

Maybe if you clean the heads on the floppy or replace the floppy drive and check the ribbon cable too.

I might have been thinking of somthing else.

One one occasion, formatting the floppy from the NAM fixed that. It's a long shot, but worth a try.......

The floppy drive is not hard to replace (you just have to find one).

It's a standard floppy drive. Pull one out of a old PC.

Try finding a floppy drive cleaner,preferably one with alcohol drops, I have had dirt get in there and it would give me that error.
