If you don't know what those are, then you certainly won't know what the 8" floppy is! Attachment 114111

I don't think I've ever used a computer with 8" floppies... I've only been messing with computers since the late 70's ;-)

The ones I used were in the 70s and were used in a Xerox dedicated word processor. Which was a computer, no less. The mouse was built into the keyboard and was round; he was stroked to get him to go where he was supposed to go. I don't remember much else about all that, it was so very long ago.

The last computer I custom built was a Pentium 4.

Lin, I didn't change my power options at all; never do.

Hibernate is on by default so I powercfg it off.

He he, my comp has a reset button!! But you have a problem if you have to use it, though. It's a bit gentler than the power sw.

I can lay claim to having seen/used 8", 5.25 and 3.5 floppies. So, the full house!

One feature Edge can't still do when I am on this forum is I can't still paste an image copied from Snipping tool.

In WYSIWYG mode you can:

Switch back to SOURCE mode when you have pasted clipboard content; WYSIWYG editor in Edge and current forum software really isn't WYSIWYG, adding extra empty lines which makes editor look somewhat stupid.

Okay, we need to do an extra step?
Will check it out. Thanks Kari.
