I've been using a floppy disk for about 2 years now. All of a sudden a few weeks ago, when I tried to open it an error meesage came up and said "The disk in drive A is not formatted. Do you want to format it now?" I was told formatting would erase everything on the disk, so I didn't do that. Does anyone know of any way to fix the disk, or can I go someplace to have the info taken out of the disk, or buy a product that'll fix the disk. Thanks you so much... this is very important to me.

Well first off information is never really lost on the drive but is written over, no matter how many times you "erase informatin on your disk" (formatting).
Working as a computer lab assistant for 2 years this is the number one problem that i see with floppy disks. I would recommend that you buy badcopy pro, which could retrieve files from corrupted floppy drives. It has helped me and alot of other people.
Here's the link..

I'm sure that that will help.. There's other free software out there for data recovery but personally i havent used them. If you get bad copy pro i'm sure it'll come in handy for you and maybe a stranger along the way.
