Never buy a Nexxtech / Phoenix / Mitsumi product again! Maybe then the manufacturer will provide solution..... Pass the word!!!!!!!

Last year I purchased a new computer with a Windows Vista operating system. I also purchased a Nexxtech external floppy drive. My computer was set up by 'Firedog' computer technicians. I have hundreds of pictures on floppy disks that I would like to transfer but every time I insert a floppy I get the message that the disk must be formatted.
I read the one solution but did not know what 'domaget' is.
Have the same problem with this usb portable 3.5" drive: Does not read disk and wants to format. Its the same on three different desktops and one laptop with XP and can not find update to driver or how to fix problem. In one case the drive wiped out the data on my disk after inserting it and doing a windows explorer on drive A. I also tried reformating on another working 3.5 system and down loading a known file with the same results.
Windows Vista Operating system. When I insert a disk into the floppy drive it wants me to format the disk. If I do that I will lose my pictures.why won't this floppy drive work?
When i insert the disk it says it has to be formated. I dont want to do that because the reason I purchased the external drive was to retrieve the stuff on the floppys. Please help
