MS DOS Floppy Disk

[GoneWithTheSin]

Hi everyone, I know this is probably a silly question but I have to make it. How can i edit data (copy, move, rename etc) saved to my hard disk (C:\...) when I boot from a floppy disk (DOS). It seems that I can only edit data saved to the floppy disk (A:\) and I can not access any other drives. Thanks in advance...

DOS doesn't support NTFS. Your "C:\" drive is probably NTFS.

I'de recommends booting into a linux live cd and mounting your C:\... go read on mounting ntfs if it is^^

I was going to suggest that but usually when I say the word "Linux" in the Windows section, everyone gets all butt-hurt and it starts a big argument.

what you have to do is make a windows xp ms-dos floppy so it can understand NTFS.

you can make one by formatting the disk and clicking "make ms-dos boot disk" before clicking "Format"
