"I'm having a problem with my 5.25" floppy disk drive. It's very old, over 30 years, and it suddenly stopped reading disks. It's part of my INVES 386SX 25 Mhz computer. When I insert a disk, it acts like it's reading it, but I get an MS-DOS error message "Error initializing disk in drive B:". It's as if it's not detecting the disk. I don't know what to do, I've cleaned it and nothing. Can anyone help me and tell me from their experience how I could fix it? It has incalculable sentimental value and I don't know anyone who can fix this kind of thing." :_(
