Hi George. As I have had the same problem as you, my problem was, that my PC was too fast (500 Mhz) for using SAMdisk. I solved that problem with a little DOS program called "Moslo", which reduces the speed of the PC CPU. You have also to start the moslo program and samdisk under "DOS". Moslo and SAMdisk must be in one folder. If your computer is also very fast and you will try "Moslo", then write to me personally and I send you this useful program as attachment in my answer under your adress. This is, because writing under the newsgroup adress often let us send an attachment as answer also to this. BTW: Which programs are you looking for?
For all: The working syntax by me is: moslo/n50 samdisk.exe Greetz to Greece Wolfgang/SPC Gernmany George Kourvaras schrieb: > Hi all > > I need to format 3.5'' disks to use with my SAM.
