<p>I'm not sure where to post this, but I think here is the most appropriate place. Okay so today in my English class I typed up most of my research paper. Then I saved it on a floppy disk. When I put the floppy disk in my computer at home, it said the disk was not formatted, and if I wanted to format it everything in the disk would de deleted..I can't open it up and get my research paper, so what can I do?</p>
<p>As far as I know, you're screwed. Sorry. Next time, use a USB drive or a CD...</p>
<p>You might be able to access the document using the floppy drive at the original computer and if so, e-mail the document to yourself...</p>

<p>coot is right. Go back to the same computer and re-save it on a USB/e-mail it.</p>
<p>If you have no luck, then your parents can probably vouch for you to get an extra day.</p>
<p>Yeah NEVER EVER save anything to a floppy.</p>
<p>Floppy disks suck. Sorry.</p>
<p>Go back and pop the floppy on the original computer and try to open it and save it to the hard drive. If that doesn't work, there might be a temp file with some/all of your work in it on the original computer.</p>
