Chapter 4: Using Drives and Ports

Using the diskette drive

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:

Insert the diskette into the diskette drive with the label facing up (or to the left, if
using your Micro Tower case vertically).

To access a file on the diskette, click

Start

, then click

My Computer

. Double-click the

drive letter (for example, the A: drive), then double-click the file name.

To remove the diskette, make sure that the drive activity light is off, then press the
diskette eject button.
