The item “sample.txt” cannot be written, because a disk error occurred.

You did not mention where were you saving your work file.

If you are going to save it on a floppy disk, the disk has a problem.

Fix it first using Scandisk or the Tools option.

1. Insert the floppy disk on the floppy drive. Right-click drive A on your Windows Explorer and choose Properties.
2. Click on Tools tab.
3. Under Error checking, click the Check Now button.
4. Click on the 2 checkboxes then hit the Start button. Wait for it to finish.

Now, you can try saving your work on the disk.

If the error is still there, replace the floppy disk with a working one.
