    Been a while since i messed with a floppy but somebody will correct me if in wrong, if you have to click on a drive to view files, you can right click them files and send to-- maybe my documents or create a new folder before hand. ed

    Copy all of it to your HD and then burn a CD. Since a CD can contain about 500 floppy's it would be wise to create a folder for every floppy on the CD and put the contents in it. Do not do this if it's a bootable floppy, or it won't boot.

    The problem is that the software comes on 5 floppies and I have a CD/DVD reader. I have to find a floppy drive.
