In Win98SE is there a bug that makes the floppy drive continually seek a
disk every time you perform a function or action? The only way to stop it so
far is to put a blank formatted floppy disk in the drive itself otherwise
the floppy disk will continually seek a disk in its drive. It seems to take
precedence over all other functions when it is in seeking mode.
It is driving me nuts. I have looked in the startup,sysedit,msconfig, and
just about everywhere
else there would normally be reference to the program or action responsible
for this type of activity. Is there a way to pinpoint what is requesting the
floppy disk obsessively????

TIA
