    I've tried all the disk serial number code I can think of, and it always returns 0, which leads me to beleive there isn't one for floppy disks. They all work fine on hard disks and cd's, but not a drives, sorry!

    In VB ?

    The only way I can think of is to probably use a sector editor of some kind... I had one a while back.

    Do you mean, change the physical serial number that is kinda ramdomly written to a disk when you format it?

    My last question is why? Copy protection!?

    Just curious.
