I am a packrat...I keep all my old software (among other things). I have a ton of old 3 1/2" and 5 1/4" floppies with my old gaming collection...the originals. Unfortunately, I've tried going through them and copying the data, or playing them directly from disk, but they seem to be unreadable.
I have read somewhere that this type of media breaks down after some number of years. Is there any solution to this problem - are all my old games gone forever? Or is there some way to recover data on these disks?
Thanks!
