Change 100Meg MAC-preformated disks to PC-formated
Got a good deal on some MAC pre-formated 100Meg Fuji Zip Disks (5 for $30), but I need to reformat the disks to PC. Since I was unable (with any of the disks) to go directly to Full Format, I had to follow the following procedure.

Since I was unable (with any of the disks) to go directly to Full Format, I had to follow the following procedure. Seems to have worked.
I first right-clicked on the ZIP Icon in MY COMPUTER, then left-clicked Quick Format (other options were greyed-out). When Quick Format was complete, I left-clicked on the ZIP Icon in MY COMPUTER, where I was allowed to perform a Full Format. This procedure appears to have worked on 9 of 10 disks. One of the disks, however, would not allow me to Full Format after the Quick Format.
Should I anticipate any problems using the Quick Format-only disk?
