Disks should always be kept away from bright sunlight, dust,
moisture and any strong magnetic fields, e.g. do not place them on
the monitor, printer, or near a telephone. It is common to store them
in a lockable “disk-box”, away from the computer itself. Avoid
opening the metal window on the disk as this exposes the magnetic
surface to contamination which could damage the data or cause the
disk to become useless.
Hint
It is always a good idea to keep a few spare ready formatted disks handy for
saving work or backing up your software. Information on formatting disks
and software backup can be found in the Windows 95 help pages.
Inserting a floppy disk
1. Pull down the drive bezel and identify the floppy drive. Test the
button to ensure there are no disks in the drive.
2. Insert the disk with the metal window first, with the label side
uppermost into the drive. This will push open the drive door,
which will stay open, leaving the disk just visible.
3. Push the disk gently home until it “clicks” into place. The drive
button will also move outwards slightly.
