Ummm..
Ok, this could be a very simple problem to you techy geniuses out there. I'm trying to save a word document onto a floppy, but it just won't do it. I go to bring up the normal save box, you know the save to floppy thing, and there's no response. I did try getting the document to print too, I installed the printer properly with all the disks, but it still wouldn't do anything, it also caused the computer to freeze a couple of times saying "spool32 is not responding", I know that file is the printing thing, but I have no clue why this is happening, it's worked just fine before.
Thanks.

Are you clicking on "File" and choosing "Save As" as opposing to choosing "Save"?

Is this file saved on your HDD or the floppy?

Yep, I'm going to "file" and the "Save as", I've even tried using the other "save" option which has a floppy disk icon next to it, still hasn't worked.
Where is it saved? It's saved on the HD, I think... |

Just save it to the hard drive, then copy it to the floppy using Windows Explorer.
