SYMPTOMS
========
After you perform a quick format on an unformatted floppy disk in Windows NT
File Manager or MS-DOS Command Prompt, the following error message appears when
you copy large files to the floppy disk:
No ID address mark was found on the floppy disk.
CAUSE
=====
This is expected behavior. When you quick format an unformatted floppy disk,
correct data structures are placed; however, no media test and verification of
cluster usability are performed.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this behavior, perform the normal format on an unformatted floppy
disk.
