Hello,

     All of a sudden I have discovered I cannot format a floppy disk and
make it bootable.  I have tried using the format command from MY COMPUTER in
Windows 98 and using the format A:/s command at the DOS prompt.  The files
are there.  I can boot from a floppy made at another computer and boot from
a Windows 98 setup disk. I can't remember when the last time I made a
bootable floppy on this computer but I have done it before.  What's the deal
here ???

Thanks
Jim Cook
