How to Copy From a Floppy to a CD
As of 2010, consumers need to request a floppy-disk drive when they purchase their computer if they need one. Avoid the need for this drive, and the additional fees for adding the driver, by transferring the files to a CD before replacing the computer. Floppy-disk drives also don't have a lot of memory space. You do not need to have the program the file is from to transfer it to the CD.
