Using Drives
This section explains how to use the diskette and CD drives.
Using diskettes
The diskette drive uses 3.5-inch diskettes (sometimes called floppy disks).
Diskettes are useful for storing files or transferring files to another computer.
To use a diskette:
1 Insert the diskette into the diskette drive with the label facing up.
2 To access a file on the diskette, double-click the My Computer icon, the
drive letter, then the file.
3 To remove the diskette, make sure the drive activity light is off, then press
the diskette eject button.
Caution Do not expose diskettes to water or magnetic fields.
Exposure could damage the data on the diskette.
